Here is a probably an 86 with potential for just under $14,000, (Overpriced IMO) but I have to question the owners attention to detail- check out the canvas install!

UPDATE- Already gone! Canvas was upside down

The answer is in his other ads.
His parts pricing is comical. _________________ One of these days I'm gonna settle down,

I wonder how he comes up with his prices? Maybe he does not realize most of his item are still available new. _________________ 1990 Wolfsburg Carat with new poptop.

Ummm, is it just me or did somebody put this tent on upside down???
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/4746230908.html
Also, didn't the yellow paint jobs come with a white(ish) top? I'm confused
Don't think I'd dish out almost $13K for that.
I want that single center seat though. I wonder if they'd sell it separate _________________ Going to where the grass is bluer...

Ha! I wonder if that is the same one I just posted. I think it's still overpriced at $12,800! _________________ Going to where the grass is bluer...

Looks like he painted the bedliner over rust in the rocker by the propane tank. I do like the license plate from his old bus "CANIBUS" _________________ 1977 Westfalia 2.0FI 4spd

I got a kick out of the 1980 Blue Westy for sale here on Samba.$20,000.00 for a complete restoration. Perhaps Im missing something but I don't know how long it will last ( if someone is crazy enough to pay that kind of cheddar ) considering it has absolutely no engine to body seal. Not even a remnant. |
