I think so, the museum bay westy is still running. In 2007 the gearbox had a malfunction, and it was repared by the same guys who developed the car in the 70s. They are already working at Volkswagen.

There are some black sheep out there, In 2010 we saw a man who sat in the bay westy at the "Techno Classica" Oldtimer fair in Essen (Germany) and he tried to steal some parts out of the van, fortunately we saw it...
