the engyne still has the methane pump system, you can see it in the left side of the engine bay.

Unfortunatly it hasn't got the original block, but a '58 (I believe)

58 block?

I see a wire clip distributor
Big nut generator
D regulator?
Strap air cleaner?
Oval hole coil bracket.

That's a lot of early bits on it for a late engine.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
What's the engine number on it?

60 shroud, late fuel pump and a late oil filler minus cap. plus the second digit of the engine number is a 2 not a 0 and there is no space for the - in the 20-####

nice car, looking forward to seeing what happens.

I know MArco, the seller. A real enthusiast. Pretty sad to this bus gone from his hands... Hope it ends at a good home...

It would be nice to see any possible camper stuff documented, I haven't seen anything in this thread to identify it as a campingbox.

As far as I know Westfalia did not chop out the bulkhead.
