Yeah first one you list is, mine was a point being made to another previous post. A vanagon with rust and numerous other issues, and asking more was considered to be a good deal. _________________ Don't harsh my mellow...

After doing my subaru conversion I can honestly say that this van is a good deal. WRX conversion, 227 hp, in what looks like a clean stock van. _________________ 84' Westy 2wd

Dude, why post a vanagon listing as a "good deal" in the "good deal" forum when you don't think it is a good deal? This isn't a competition, and people will have different opinions. Relax....
BTW TequilaSunSet, from what I gathered on your thread, you got a totally awesome deal on your van, and your van is looking great. Good work. Don't sell it (even if for too much! ) _________________ 1984 Westfalia - Ford Cologne 2.8L conversion

I've sent a couple of emails to the poster of this ad: http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/4553877928.html.
I haven't gotten a response. There seem to be some palms in the background of one photo. What do you think? |

Good deal to me and others will always be subjective, like butt holes and opinions, we all have one Sorry if I came off douchy earlier, been edgy the last few weeks dealing with the folks health issues.
Thanks for the compliment! Too much? I will never disclose how much I got into that sucker, selling for too much would not be enough! After tomorrow I will have just about everything mechanical replaced in the last 13 months... my bank account is sad but my inner child is happy! Now I really need to get a job or I will be living out of it! _________________ Don't harsh my mellow...

I'm still trying to figure out the "security storage" and bed arrangement over the engine. |

I didn't think this was a good deal just thought I would share with the forum something I have yet to see - if someone has deep pockets and wants something out of the ordinary....
