Good deals on Nice Vans

[JustsomeKentuck]

IDK about it being a good deal (it hasn't sold yet) but it's most definitely a nice van!

$13,500 for an 1985 Westy w/ Bostig conversion

From the pictures, it has some rust on the seam behind the fridge, but looks to be pretty decent.

Good project for someone who can fix that kitchen panel, the exchange rate is killing me

Im about an hour and a half from there. I may have already gotten to my limit of asking bank for $'s for stuff, but maybe if I put up my Flossie as collateral....

I like the color

$23,500 for a syncro westy (Seattle). Seems reasonable...not sure if it is smoking hot...seller says can't be registered in CA

from ad:
This is a rare opportunity to own a Vanagon Syncro Westy in great condition!

This van is in overall great condition and is ready for your adventures! Interior in good original condition. No rips or odors. Fridge, stove, and sink pump work properly. Both tables included. Good tires all around.
Outside completely repainted 2015 in original color, including black texture paint around bottom.
2.1L engine rebuilt in 2007 (~170,000 miles), transmission rebuilt in 2006 (~154,000 miles).

Recent work done in the past 8 months:

-New pop-top canvas (Bus Depot OEM style with 3 windows)

-New rubber seals around pop-top and luggage rack

-All fixed window glass rubber replaced

-GoWesty stainless steel exhaust system with catalytic converter

-GoWesty front and rear steel plate bumpers

-New main battery (Duracell Group 41 from Batteries+, July 2016) and camper battery (50AH AGM)

-Full tune-up including new belts, plugs, plug wires, fuel filter, air filter, oil and filter change, fuel pump

-Shift linkage completely rebuilt with new bushings and GoWesty aluminum shift selector elbow

-Engine oil pressure gauge added

-New wiper blades and rear hatch gas lift struts

-Includes rear hatch bug screen

Issues:
- Odometer was replaced, according to the previous owner, so Carfax shows "NOT ACTUAL MILEAGE TITLE ISSUED" when it was titled in Arizona. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle history, however, and only 11,000 miles have been put on in the last 3 years.
- Speedometer is inaccurate.
- Instrument cluster lights are out.
- Small section of rust on inside corner of body, just under the lower right-hand side of the driver's door that should be repaired. I will include a new spray can of the correct paint.
- Driver's right-hand armrest needs to be reattached.
- Carpet is original and should be replaced or cleaned.
-Original hubcaps included (but need painting)
- Sink has small leak
- Odometer is in km (Originally from Canada). Current reading 382,546 km.
- Due to being an import, this vehicle cannot be registered in California.

This van spent all but the past 2 years in Western B.C. It was imported into the US by the previous owner and titled in Arizona. I purchased this van via Ebay auction in May 2016 and transported it to Seattle in July 2016. It has a clean WA State title. We have decided that the van is too small for my wife and I and our kids, so I am making the difficult decision to sell after spending nearly 2 years looking for a Syncro Westy in this shape.

If you are interested in seeing more detailed photos of the undercarriage, suspension, seams, etc, please email me and I will send you a link to a Google Photos album.

Thanks for looking.

Very interesting.... especially since the CL ad was created 21 hours ago....

[syncrodoka]

That kind of rust on the inside with a fresh paintjob is also interesting...
