G'day everyone, thought i would put up a photo of my newly aqquired westfalia. I was told its a 76 model but on the 'westfalia' plate thingy, it says 73/11 then a serial number or something. So maybe its a 74? Can someone please confirm?

I plan to customise the van a little bit and use it for some road trips throughout the year then travel around Australia next year. I've got it stored at my old man's factory so got plenty of space and tools to get started on it. Below is a picture of it before it got towed down to Melbourne.

Nice bus, it doesn't look like a 73.

Load that bus up and go camping! They are a blast on road trips too.
