what you have is a '81 westfalia highroof Joker  diesel camper...  the westy
"Joker" high roofs were never sold in the USA so that makes it rare and
desirable..and the condition makes it worth  more too..plus its a diesel and that is
desireable as well..

id say  if its in good running shape maybe its worth somewhere between $6500
- $8500 USD..maybe more..
