Manny, I am lucky Mary does not ever check the Samba.
I got some paint mixed and did a little touch up to the westy tan, I still need to take it back and have it adjusted a tad, but it is very close.
The pic below is the before and after where the PO installed seat beats.
I know no one will ever see that, but I will when I lift up the seat.
I also installed the re-chromed rear hatch handle. (I will never get handles re-chromed again)

Thank you all for following along. I was not happy with my first attempt on color matching the westy interior paint, so off to Sherwin Williams to have them work on the match. After a couple of hours fine tuning the paint. I think we have a match.

just went through the whole thread - very nice work, amazing attention to detail!
any idea how that austrian badge ended up on the dash? |
I wish I knew some history on the bus - the Man I purchased it from owned it for 30 years and he purchased it from a man in Michigan.
