1986 Syncro Westfalia Giraffe
This van came to us out of the great state of Texas. It lived in our shop for about a year until we received a call from
Boulder, CO Josh on superbowl sunday 2011. The seed was planted and the Giraffe began to grow from that day on. The name for the
Giraffe van came from an early brainstorm to wrap the van in a Giraffe skin print. That idea was scrapped
half way through the build but the name stuck…All vans need a name and this is a great one. Josh and Lisa were fantastic
customers to work with, had great ideas and very easy going. In the end we were absolutely thrilled with the way this van turned out,
very proud of this build and they LOVE IT! Below is a list of all the upgrades and additions made to the Giraffe.
