There's another Westy mentioned on Jalopnik in their regular "Nice Price or Crack Pipe" feature.

That article mentions Go westy a bunch, but that van has my pop top assist kit (mine was without doubt the first on the market...) on it instead of Go Westies Laughing

i've always been a fan of westy campers, never owned one, still would like to have one but there's no way i could lay out that much money for one of these and feel right.
