I just received this photo from the PO, my 67 Westy photo with the original owner. I'll treasure this photo by printing with archival materials and clipping to the sun visor as I do with my other classics.

That's a great photo on its own but knowing it's your bus and the original owner makes it all the more special. Thank you for sharing!!
