Hello all,
I'd like to know if there is a good photo reference for all of the various stickers and decals that were originally found on the 83-91 Westy.
I'm talking about the info / warning stickers around the fuel filler, side hookups and the propane tank. Is there a good photo reference so I can see how these stickers should look on a 100% original Westy? |

I'm sure I've seen Westy Threads for the Decals on the Pop Top Roof, regarding placement, etc.
There 'might' be similar threads for Fuel Cap warnings and other items.
Have you used the Search Function?
Here's a thread to start with.

Here you go. All the original decals and stickers on my bone stock (at least bodywise) 1984 Westy. I've owned the van for 30 years and never removed or replaced any of the decals or stickers. Not sure if it makes any difference but the van was delivered in Germany to a U.S. Army physician stationed there. They drove it while there and then imported it to the U.S. It was a U.S. spec model, but not sure how that applies to the stickers. Don't overlook the "Do not remove under penalty of law" sticker on the back of the rear seat.

There was also one on the dash to not forget the pop top open , at least in '85, and one by the ashtray for the rear bench, I forgot what it says.
Brickwerks has almost all stickers.
So many variations over the years, engine bay had some too, the rear hatch as well. _________________ Silicone Steering Boots and 930 Cv boots for sale in the classifieds.
