2018 VW Arched Awning Ready To Mail
The first VW Arched Awning for 2018 is boxed and ready to mail. This Volkswagen Westfalia Bus awning is 8' x 8', with shock poles to arch it up, for more height underneath and incline for rain run off. It is designed to attach to the rain gutter on the vintage VW Bus.
Here I am testing the lengths on the shock poles, to arch up the VW Awning.

As pictured, you can see that the shock poles hold the form of the Westfalia arched awning even when upside down.
The shock poles will have a tie on the underside to secure where the shock poles cross. For the picture, while testing the poles a Velcro strap is temporarily holding them.
A rain gutter pole inserts into the casing along the edge and is held into the rain gutter by a variety of different types of clamps. Due to the rain gutter pole and the shock poles, shipping costs vary by location zip code.
Inquire at for pricing and shipping estimate. I do have Pre-Made VW awnings in 7 1/2 rain gutter lengths boxed and ready to mail. One is Fern Heather Beige Block Stripe Sunbrella SOLD and the other is Baycrest Pacific. SOLD
