Oh No.... Ok,  Here we go again..........(you asked for it...:<)

The "Westfalia Weekender" is a non-factory term used to coin the:

Wolfsburg Ed. non-GL Westy's  ( "WWW" )
               AND
Standard non-GL Westy's.

Keep in mind that in '84 there was a two tone brown Wolfsburg Ed. Westy that
was a 
FULLY equipped GL westy, and The weekender term, followed by the Name "Westy"
is used to differentiate from this model.

Cleared up now?
(of course not....  :<)
