The Photos Speak for Themselves.
This Type 2 VW Van remains an iconic historic figure today. The Westfalia-Werke Van Conversion Company converted the Type 2 VW Vans in to these awesome campers. Volkswagen described the Campmobile as “having a cottage that goes anywhere you want to go”. These icons are still nostalgic head turners today with a lot of fans whenever they head down the road or pull in to a campground.
The 1978 Volkswagen Westfalia Campmobile offered here remains highly original as it is restored featuring repaint in its original Dakota Beige, along with many new (original) parts and seals. The body is excellent and also features solid original floors as seen in the accompanying photos. The interior of this Westy remains nice and cozy as well as completely original. Mechanically, it is very tight, proven and ready to camp and cruise. It is powered by a 2.0 liter GE code 4 cylinder motor.
Campmobile features on this Westy include: Rear bench seat converting to double bed with locker below, swivel seat, clothes closet with vanity mirror, ceiling cabinet, linen closet, 12 volt ceiling lamp, 110-125volt AC electrical hook up receptacle, double outlets, master switch and circuit breaker, louvered windows, cabinet with stainless steel sink, 12v water pump, 7 gallon water tank, fridge, stove, curtains, insulated paneled walls, fiberglass pop-up top, weather resistant canvas sides, screened window zipper flap, double bed mattress, front mounted spare tire, outside water hook up and tartan plaid interior upholstery, and finally, the custom installed Propex Heating System. Whether you are going for a quick picnic or having an extended vacation, this Westfalia will combine your love for a nostalgic ride while being the coolest camper out there.
The Propex HS2211 Heater
The Propex Heatsource HS2211 heater is an automatic thermostatically controlled blown air heating system fuelled by propane/ butane gas.
The Propex Heatsource HS2211 heater is designed for mounting the unit underneath the vehicle; various bracket fixings allow different positions and orientations for mounting, increasing fitting options under floors or up between chassis rails
Simple intuitive controls gives easy heater control and a constant heater feedback loop enable quick and easy system diagnose.
Suitable for: Motorhomes, Caravans, Boats, Cranes, Horseboxes, Trucks & RVs.
Total Control
The HS2211 is supplied as standard with a solid state electronic thermostat which automatically switches the unit on and off to maintain the desired temperature.
When the room temperature drops below the selected level, the Heatsource will automatically ignite and run until the cabin reaches the selected temperature.
Gas Efficiency
With forced air combustion and the Propex two stage stainless steel heat-exchanger, the HS2211 is a clean and highly efficient way to heat your vehicle or boat.
Air for combustion is taken from outside your caravan or motor- home and passed into the combustion chamber having been mixed with gas during three aeration stages; it is ignited automatically and heats up the large surface area of the heat-exchanger.
The Heatsource units are totally room sealed and exhaust all products of combustion externally through neat 22mm i.d. stainless steels flue pipe.
To add to the efficiency, cabin air is normally re-circulated in preference to using cold air from outside. The HS series heaters are also very efficient on12 volt electrical current consumption drawing less than 1.7 amps on gas operation.
Quiet Operation
Propex heaters are designed to be quiet in operation without compromising air throughput and heat output. There will always be some air noise from a system that produces a healthy airflow, however, by using high quality balanced fans and smooth enclosed motors with ball race bearings; noise is kept to a minimum.
Noise is also unaffected by high voltage, a common occurrence with battery charges, solar panels etc permanently wired. The micro-processor electronics regulates the motor voltage so that the fan speed does not alter between 10 to 15 volts.
Installation
The HS2211 can be supplied with complete fitting kits to suit underfloor installations, with kits available to cover the number of outlets required. In vehicles and caravans the unit is usually mounted under the floor or between chassis rails, with some vehicle specific mounting kits available, the combustion pipes are then lead out to the side of the vehicle. The low profile design of the heater means no pipes or easily snagged parts are left exposed and so maintaining the ground clearance of the vehicle. The heat is ducted to one or more outlets through tough highly flexible 60mm ducting and up into the vehicle in your preferred location. The ducting runs outside the vehicle should be run inside insulated ducting to minimise heat loss. In the case of multi-outlet installations, the first outlet is an open outlet with directional control and the rest are closable and are used in conjunction with the appropriate sized plastic Y-branches. The heater is made from corrosion resistant materials and sealed against the ingress of water, however suitable provision should be made to protect the heater from direct road spray and debris.
