Volkswagen Type 2 Camper SO42 Westfalia – 1966 – Highly Original & Exceptional Condition
In January 1966, this stunning Volkswagen split-screen SO42 Westfalia left the factory in Hannover, beginning its journey to the United States. It was originally delivered in Philadelphia, where it spent many years on the road. In 2010, this iconic Type 2 camper was acquired in Colorado, where it had previously been used as a promotional vehicle for Coors beer – documentation in the name of the brewery is still included.
After arriving in the Netherlands, the splitscreen bus underwent a careful three-year restoration. The result is a SO42 Westfalia in near-perfect condition.
What truly sets this Type 2 camper apart is its fully original Westfalia interior. From the curtains and furniture to the upholstery, everything dates back to 1966 – a rare find in this condition.
