Just curious as to if anybody on here has or has seen a '76 Westy Weekender (tintop with camper guts) should be painted white. Just looking for curiosity sake I've got a standard and my brother has the deluxe, also '76.

Doesn't look like the 76 came in a white color as a factory option

They had 3 models of Westy in '76 (IIRC) the White = Tintop = P21, Yellow = Standard = P22, and Green = Deluxe = P27. I've never seen a tintop hence the question. Smile

Here is one of the late hard tops I manage to capture on film, er digital bits on a memory card Confused

2010 Bourne Classic in Texas. I want to say 78? Later that year when visiting San Diego I saw a 77 at the Poway Farmers Market. They are out there.
