Hi! My name is Sam and as of April 2007, I am the proud owner of a 1973/1977 Volkswagen Westfalia Camper Van named "Juicy Lucy Matilda". We live on Denman Island, in British Columbia, Canada. This blog will track the thrills and heartaches that Lucy and I will undoubtedly share on our open road adventures.
If you'd like to get in touch, whether it's about your own Westy blog or just to chat V-dubs, please feel free to drop me a line at sam[AT]opendead[DOT]com.
See you on the road!

Very cool site. I have a 72 Karmann Ghia. You should post some more about it!

Very cool man! i've been looking at picking up a westfalia for sometime now. Did you do any upgrades or did it just come pimped out?

HI Sam. Can you tell me where you got your van painted. We have a 1986 Westfalia we are wanting to get painted and do not know where to take it. We live in Victoria.
Thanks Sam.

Shyrl, I had my van paint job done locally, and it was a bit of a sketchy scene. However, there's a VW restoration shop in Courtenay that you might be interested in: Original Restorations.
