With a new owner scheduled to come to Dallas and drive his new Westy (my
83 of 8 years) I cleaned out the cabinets, cubby holes, glove box, under
the seat storage areas.
After attempting to temporarily store all of the contents in the trunk of
my 92 Crown Vic I was sorely surprised that they just wouldn't fit in the
trunk.
It is easy to see why the term "Westy Lean" is a viable statement.
I'd say the contents list is generally boring and containers nothing the
average Westy owner would have on board.
In previous clean out rampages I always managed to get the full Westy
contents into my old 86 Olds Custom Cruiser Land Yacht with all the seats
folded down. Even in this configuration I found I was packing in the rear
seat foot well and stuffing things under the folded rear seat. (Olds,
currently full of shop supplies, looking for a storage spot.)
It is indeed an interesting thing to see just how much one can compress
into the available cubby holes and storage niches of a Westy.
I guess I may have been an exception and kept enough 'things', to run
away from home for a month without ever going grocery shopping.
