Sorry Chris.
I have an 81 Westy that is going to the junkyard next weekend because, there
is no interest in it.
I'll pull the cabinets for my 84 hardtop westy project, but ya know, nobody
really cares. It doesn't matter that it has no rust. Nobody wants a project
on the scope of rebuilding a camper from scratch.
