The '87 Wolfsburg Edition Camper also came with a blue/gray tweed
upholstery with matching blue plastic panels (very rare, I've seen one in
person and one on the web). Since these were non-GL models, they wouldn't
have come with fiberglass bumpers, though I'm sure that one or two might
have made it here with them, or window moldings with chrome trim.

They were still being sold in Europe as late as '89 under the model name
"Multivan" in the Spanish T3 brochure that I have, still with steel
bumpers.

Both of the two '87's on ebaY look to have chrome window trim, like most of
the GL models of that model year, you had to pay extra for that :>).

referred to as the Wolfsburg Westy Weekender, ie, NON-GL Camper.. made from
'85-'87..the '85-'86 had that shreddy tan cord.. the 87's had tan tweed
(rare) (vw didnt make that shreddy cord after '86 as they relized what a
sh*tty material it was)
