i hate to tell ya, but it still isn't a Westfalia ... Westfalia puts
their placards on with rivets, not phillip-head screws. someone has
added the placard from some junkyard camper. and the Wolfsburg badge
is likely also been added. the only thing that seems real about the
bus is that it does have the pop-top that Country Homes campers used
to sell. other than that, i'd say it's a put-up job by some previous
owner.

and yes, i've been around vw buses since the middle sixties, so i do
believe i know what i'm talking about.
