Embark on a journey of nostalgia and wonder with Nellie, a beautifully restored 1972 VW Westfalia. Her fresh turquoise paint glistens in the sun while her newly restored saddle brown upholstery (with matching turquoise piping) emanates an aura of comfort and warmth.Step inside and you'll find a bench that magically transforms into a full-sized bed for two, perfect for snuggling up with your loved one under the stars. The pop-top roof allows for fresh air and standing room while the 45L Dometic refrigerator keeps your favorite foods and drinks cold and refreshing. And with the Ecoflow 600 power station charging off the 100W solar panel or car battery, you'll have all the power you need for your devices and appliances. Don't forget about the kitchen box, complete with a 12,000 BTU burner, cast-iron pan, and kitchenware to whip up a delicious meal wherever you go.But Nellie is more than just a vehicle, she's a true masterpiece crafted with love and passion. For the past four years, I have poured my heart and soul into restoring her, purely because of the joy and magic she brings to anyone who lays eyes on her. As you roll up to a campsite, festival, or even just the store, Nellie's presence illuminates the surrounding environment and brings out the best in humanity. Join us on a journey of a lifetime and experience the wonder and nostalgia of a bygone era.What's includedBedding

Other things to noteNellie is a vintage vehicle. She is powered by a newly rebuilt type-1 1600cc air-cooled engine. This means she requires some TLC that I have always felt to be helpful creative boundaries for roadtrips. She really shouldn't be driven over 60MPH and 55MPH is best for her. Caution should be given when the temperature reaches over 95F. Best to keep her to at most 300 miles per day as well.

Easy car pickup and return. Wyatt was super helpful answering my questions when I had trouble with reverse gear. Great vintage car - fun to drive if you are ok with driving a manual.
