wow. I guess there are places not quite abundant with full Westy's.

there are hundreds of full-camper Westy's in the western states. thousands even. and they all have both front seats that swivel. ( though it's significant improvement to remove the driver's one usually. )

A westy is a pretty common thing actually .. in Oregon and Washington. Just ran into a guy the other day who picked up a very decent 84 for $ 1,800 in an auction. Said he was in contact with local original owner - so a one-owner Westy. Nothing that wrong with it really. I could have easily gotten $ 5K for it for the owner, , if the orignal owner knew about me. Score and a half , for the new owner.

Depends on where you are , and condtion of the rig of course .. but some people are letting them go way too inexpensively, from not being tapped into this great vanagon familly online and not even knowing about this whole world.

I wouldn't be suprised if there are 100 Westy's .........easily that, in the Rogue Valley of southern Oregon .. Medford/Ashland. More than that even, In just one medium size small city. And pretty well preserved too .. No rust. And in many parts of Oregon they use red volcanic sand rather than salt on snowey roads. Very dry climate too, ( well , not Portland ...but that's just wetness, not salty corrosion ).
