We Bought a Volkswagen Vanagaon Westfalia Campervan!

[@MARKLINMAN1]

Man to see the EXCITEMENT and SMILE of your oldest daughter when you picked her up made this entire video sooooooooo worth watching, the memories you make with your children and Betty Lou will NEVER be forgotten. I have to really start saving and selling all my crap and get a WESTY and hit the road, LIFE IS SHORT. Best of Luck and she is BEAUTIFUL, the color has grown on me.

[@hunterluxton5976]

Beautiful bus. Well done.👍You also have a great looking family. They are clearly thrilled with it!

[@johngiovine8792]

Vanagon's are a very fine and reliable vehicle if they are mechanically set-up correctly (post factory spec's). I am a retired shop owner, mechanic / technician and I still love my 1990 Vanagon. Be VERY carful with what you buy...

[@eigeroverland]

Holy crap that Westy is clean.

Beautiful VW Westfalia!

[@pinky882]

Man what an incredible VW you are extremely fortunate! Is that color from the factory? I don't think I've ever seen that burnt orange color before, it's incredible!!!

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thank you, it’s technically “Rust,” I believe, and yes it’s the original color just an upgraded paint coat.

[@bluerallyes2]

Same reaction from my two daughters when I brought Em the T4 Westfalia (Eurovan to you guys) home a few years ago. Still as loved as the day we got her

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Love that! Thanks for sharing! There’s just something about ‘em!

[@johnhaggerty4257]

Fun to be had. Enjoy guys. Luv from uz here in Scotland

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@Heirbornranger7]

Hey I think we are brothers!! ;) Our adventure to get our van was similar what a blast! We are in AR.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Awesome!

[@garyp.7501]

I that the previous owner put the table mount on the door pillar so you can use the table outside. I might have to do that! I put a box between the seats and it has it's own table support built in. Didn't know what to do with the previous mount! Now I do!.

[@FHNate]

That's awesome, buddy! Super clean ride! Enjoy the adventures!

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks man! We are all so excited!

[@ryanbarry5428]

awesome video! The kids reaction was my favorite part!

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks! :) mine too!

[@jamie-r2034]

I have a 79' bay and although I'm not a huge fan of vanagons, I'd totally would have bought this one too! That's bad ass man!! enjoy!!

[@sarahdell4042]

That’s a beautiful VW! What’s something like this worth?

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thank you! One set up like this now and with the custom engine, custom transmission and vintage air will run you on average 35k

[@sarahdell4042]

@@PostFamilyPilgrimage Not bad at all! This one is super clean! Still have it?

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

​@@sarahdell4042Thanks! My brother in law has it now :)

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thank you!

[@RDS617]

I had to play it back it almost sounded like you said the AC was blowing cold 😂

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Haha right? When it works, it’s amazing! 🤣

[@kimhorton6109]

Very clean, ac screens on the sliding window, new tent. And diesel, not a lot of those.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks! She’s a lot of fun!

[@Laters3]

Love how your children love your cranker. My kids hate mine. I love it tho new sub to

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks!

[@JeepingMo]

Look forward to move videos with the van.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Gonna get on that ASAP!!!

[@Broham096]

Was wondering what kind of bumper you have on the back of this beauty? Have an 84 of my own and have been looking for a bumper with a swing away system as well as included hitch for a while now.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks! It's an older GoWesty dual swing out! :-)

[@Time.Space.Heal.]

We have an 84 same color!

[@mcderekvids]

Hey. Great van! Would you mind telling me what size tires you're running? And those wheels are great. Do you know what brand they are? I hope you have a lot of great adventures!

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks! I’ll have to check the size of tires. I think 255 16s. The wheels are from a VW Rabbit. :) not sure on year. They are 16 inch alloys.

[@aburaeese]

You got yourself a beautiful example.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks!

[@mnsignr]

Do you have any idea where you can get some original fog lamps for a Westie?? And other stuff too??

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

check with GoWesty.com or VanDepot.

[@presbyterianchurchofeaston5778]

Made a similar decision and trip to Fla to pick up Goldie. Question - where did you get the ladder your daughter used to get into the upper bed?

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

I’m not sure. It came with Betty Lou when I picked her up. We’ve had it ever since.

[@CoburnLarsen]

What kind of Westy is it? what year? so cool

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Thanks! It's a 1984!

[@stich1960]

Is it really a vw if it has working heat or ac? Jk

[@millsman19]

What kind of wheels are those?

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

They are off of a VW Rabbit is what the previous owner told me

[@garyp.7501]

Should have junked that fridge rather than haul it home.

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

Right! First thing I did when I got home was through it out LOL
