Trigger is on Consignment Agreement with Westy World. Owner has approved a viewing of the full Pre-Sale Inspection Report for any serious buyers. Owner approved all mechanical recommended repairs to ensure new buyer could turn the key and go.
History
Trigger was originally purchased and delivered to the previous owner at the Westfalia factory
in Westfalia Germany. It was common then for car buyers to take delivery of a new
US specified car at the factory in Europe and travel in it with return shipping to
home as a promotional package. The previous owner of Trigger and his retired friends
bought several 1984 Westfalia vans together and toured Europe for 6 months. They
were white with a red and blue stripe on the van sides representing USA, the van’s
final home destination. (Download the History File below to read more about Triggers story.)
