I have placed a rare Vanagon item up for auction at EBay.

I promise you that you have never seen one of these VW factory-accessory
awning/canopies before. I've looked for another - and I don't think there is
one!

It was originally delivered in Germany, - as a factory accessory with a
brand-new Westfalia - to a Canadian serviceman. I got totally lucky aquiring
it - the original owner left a note on my van, asking me if I wanted to buy
it!

Feel free to post this to other VW lists, as I'm sure the Type 2 guys will
be interested in it as well.

(Thanks Jeff for being the model in the photos!;>))



is there any markings/emblems/print/writing on the awning that would lead you
to believe that is is made by VW or Westfalia-Werke?    alot of companies
made awnings..  just curious
