1987 Syncro Westfalia Vanagon

Welcome to a blog about the modifications of, and adventures in my 1987 Syncro Westfalia. Please see blog archive below.


Last days of September, GoWesty Bumpers.

We went for a long hike to the summit of Lone Peak. It is a 10 hour hike if you don't get lost in the rock garden. Awesome view, well worth the hike. We took the Jacobs Ladder Trail, very steep, it is exhilarating. Not for the faint of heart.

Lone Peak, a mountain peak southeast of Salt Lake City, Utah, is the center of the Lone Peak Wilderness Area, which was established in 1978. At 11,253 feet (3,430 m) elevation, it is one of the taller peaks in the Wasatch Range along the Wasatch Front and tends to be a favorite hike. Lone Peak consists almost entirely of quartz monzonite (a granitoid, or granite-like) rock of the 30.5 million year old Little Cottonwood Stock.[1][2][3] Quartzite and limestone are also found in distal locations on the mountain. Lone Peak is the 87th highest named mountain in Utah.[4]













GoWesty bumpers are installed. The brush guard took some fabrication but it should stop a deer, or a group of zombies. 








Painted Westy Skin to match and help seal gutters.


Fall is here. Provo Canyon on the back side of Squaw Peak. 












Sara got an iPhone 5 for her B-day. Takes awesome panoramic pics. We went all over this weekend.
