Hi, I've just been given one of these by a work colleague who had a t3 van years ago, is this a period correct awning for our van's?
Are they any good or worth anything ££ collectible maybe?
I'm personally after a ARB one but this may come in handy if I keep it.
Thanks,
Mike.

It's looks hardly used too!
I'll have to get it erected and take some more photo's. certainly looks 80-90's retro

That looks exciting what's it like when it's up. We would say with the current market for our vans and it being an original westfalia it would be worth a bit of bob as it seems anything westfalia related has a lot of value but we would be interested to see how much it was worth

Interesting, do you have any pictures of it up?
How much did u pay for it if you don't mind me asking? (Pm price if you like)
Might be worth selling it on so I can put some money towards the ARB one.
In the meantime I will set it up in the back garden this weekend if it doesn't rain!
Thanks.
