My brother is a paper modeler, and was happy to get the Westy camper.
He also provided a link to this splitty model, which is somewhat more detailed:

Fantastic!
I think VW knew the parents would end up making the model and meanwhile fall in love with the real thing. I love your pictures, who could make one of these models without wanting the real thing. |

Well here is the last of the original model supplied in this kit. The VWoA Side Tent. I owned one of these and have to say its the biggest of them all and is easy to set up. A far better tent in real life than the Circus type we see from Westfalia.
I've sent on massive sized files to Everett to put on the site for all to download. They are unaltered copies of the piece of how I got it. I would hope others would play and tweak this model with today's technology making it even more enjoyable for all.
I hope to see your creations here.
Enjoy.

This is awesome. A nice yellow cap to a small mustard jar would be finish the movement.

Yeah. I think that piece is NLA. Wonder if you could make your own and use it as a drink shelf when camping?  _________________ My Bus Restoration Blog
