The VW bus became the world's camper because dozens of houses bodied and fitted it — Westfalia and Devon, Dormobile and Reimo, Riviera/ASI and GoWesty, coachbuilders who stretched and re-roofed it, and the specialists still building today. Here they are, by region — with the authentication tells and the name-traps that separate a documented conversion from a tribute.
Identity, provenance and authentication only — a registry entry never sets a value. The value of record for each conversion lives on its own vehicle page in the Volkswagen catalog, through the valuation engine. The forensic tells shown here inform condition and risk; the house-specific adjustment logic stays internal.
