The Buying a Vanagon blog is a pretty good primer on what to look for when buying a Vanagon. You will still get more specific advice from reading through the GoWesty library, but this blog does provide a good place to start. Now on to the Vanagon they use on the front. Awesome! I don’t even need to describe it. Just look at it! She’s ready for anything.
This van was apparently put together by Rocky Mountain Westy, according to a post on The Samba. These bulley bars go a long way to protecting the front of the van. They also added the same bars to the rear of the van and it looks awesome. This thing is ready for anything!
Sometimes you just run across a Vanagon with an interesting paint job. This one fits the bill. It’s a purple lightning Vanagon. In addition to the paint job, check out the custom exhaust.

If anyone knows what kind of camper this is, please comment below. This is a very interesting high top in that it’s not really that high. It looks to be a mid 1980’s van. It has a luggage area in the back of the roof and some interesting front mounted driving lights.
