Full width bed, rear cabinet only, rear facing seat, fold-up table, and a pop-top. VW never called them Weekenders. The archives have many arguments to that point leftover from the days I used to own one. I do miss the handling!
vw called them the NON-GL Camper. and they had them in '87 as well, no wolfsburg badge though. was just in one yesterday.. poptop..syncro..non gl camper.. no air conditioning, no power steering.. but it had the diff lock. blue plastic sidepanels with flip out wall table and drivers jumpseat ..dual; batteries.. full width bed and rear cabinet with big door in face. the seats were blue and grey tweed and carpets were blue.... very cool! most people call these westy weekenders even tho its not technically correct like chris said.. |
