Is Your Westy Ready for Reality TV?
Mon, 2009-10-19 20:47 — JohnBWe've been contacted by a production company that is shooting a pilot for a reality television program involving distinctive traveling "homes" and their unique owners.
Do you have a lovingly preserved, converted, prized, charming, outrageous and unusual camper van?
We're talking about anything from VW Westfalias to hippie school buses here. No modern motor homes need apply.
And, just as importantly, are you someone who could talk about your vehicle with engaging passion on camera, telling us about its history and your adventures together?
If so, please upload detailed photos of you and your ride along with a brief account of your history together to the Distinctive Westies and their Distinctive Owners photo album *
* By uploading your pics you are implicitly authorizing Westfalia.org to provide show producers with your email address if they are interested in contacting you.
Vincent and Dave Manning: A Distinctive Westy and It's Distinctive Owner
Mon, 2009-10-19 20:43 — JohnB
Vincent is a 1965 VW camper (his birthday is this month!) He goes up and down the west coast carrying me, Dave Manning, to my various gigs.
You see, I play musc for a living in bars, casinos and wherever will pay the bills. I live in Vincent full time, and I bought him when I was 17: (the first car I ever bought! 18 years ago) .
He's been to Folsom Prison where I played, Arlo Guthrie autographed him. What's more is that I do a radio show about my travels every week, it airs on KWMD in Anchorage, or on the web at www.davemanning.net
