A co worker has had work done there and speaks highly of their work and their price is 'highly' too. There are several ways to go and they are one. Another way...
I agree with all of the above. Go Westy is very good and very expensive. I had a Nisssan Maxima engine put in my 84 Westy and have been very satisfied - it is...
Tom, I had a 2.4L engine installed by GoWesty last October and had a very good experience. I gave them the okay to do up to $1,500 additional work as they...
Tom, I had GoWesty do a fair amount of work on the Roadhaus before taking off on a 2 yr /60k mile drive about and it was top notch. Considering the quality of...

Well I have my top repainted on the outside and I have all new rubber seals in place, Now before I install the popup tent, I want to address the roof lining...
I have used a type of contact fabric on the inside of my '86 westy. It's a great product. It's cloth with and adheisive baking similar to contact paper that...
Personally I would glue cloth. The condensation is a problem, that is why it is currently Flocked. Perhaps there is a spray flocking you can use. Fran Walker...

I finally have my 82 Diesel Westy at the house and the repainted top and luggage rack and the new tent are installed. I started peeling off some body filler...
We imported an American Westfalia Vanagon into the UK and our first task was to replace the missing underfloor gas tank. We purchased one from GoWesty! (Made...
Sorry, GS, but there are no gauges that will do what you want. You could add a pressure gauge but it would show that the pressure is fine right up to the last...
Some sporting equipment stores a few years ago and some hardware stores carried a strip that went on the out side of barbeque propane tanks that somehow...
The problem with these strips is the tank on the westy is too thick. They work on a temperature differential which simply isn't there on our rigs. Mike ... ...

Anyone considered installing a real RV power converter in the Westy. Seems like it would be a better solution to the stock set up. The 12 volt items could run...
Nothing wrong with the idea but finding the space to accomodate the RV power converter and all our other ideas might be tough. Remember to leave space for...
Does anyone have cruise control on a late model Westy? If so could you take some detailed photos of the engine parts and post them. I'd like to accumulate...
RE: Adding Cruise Control Unless you are concerned with staying with original equipment there are better solutions for retrofitting a cruise contorl, the...
Just a note ..... I have a GoWesty 2.3 engine in my 1989 Westy and I'm really happy with it. Yes maybe it did cost a bundle but if you plan on keeping the VW...
