What  most people call "Weekenders" are actually Wolfsburg edition
Westfalias from  85-86. Full width bed, rear cabinet only, rear facing seat, fold-up
table, and  a pop-top. VW never called them Weekenders.  The archives have
many  arguments to that point leftover from the days I used to own one.

I do miss the handling!

vw called them the NON-GL Camper.    and they had them in  '87 as well, no
wolfsburg badge though.   was just in one yesterday..  poptop..syncro..non
gl camper..  no air conditioning, no power  steering..   but it had the diff
lock.   blue plastic  sidepanels with flip out wall table and drivers
jumpseat ..dual; batteries..  full width bed and rear cabinet with big door in
face. the seats were blue and  grey tweed and carpets were blue....  very cool!

most people call these westy weekenders even tho its not technically
correct like chris said..
