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.

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

Also, didn't the yellow paint jobs come with a white(ish) top? I'm confused 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 Think

You can ask whatever you want. We all know it's a 2-3 K vehicle,especially needing a "Coolant Flush" AKA Head gaskets .
But Hey Go Westy Gets . . .

To get us back on topic....

189k miles - original 2.1L motor - automatic transmission


$35K for a van with the stock 2.1L engine with almost 200K miles?! Shocked

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/cto/4747812099.html

The owner must actually live in Oregon, Washington, or Colorado, because he's smoking something Laughing

Moderator note:
I did some clean up of all the non-Vanagon content.
I also updated the Whine title to use "vans" instead - thanks to the members that stated this was a good idea.

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"

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. Rolling Eyes
