Park it in your Crazytown garage next to this: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1985-volkswagen-cabriolet-9/ . Keep in mind that the seller bought it from a museum for around $45K, which was the highest price ever at that time for this VW model.
Low mileage + all original + 2 people with fat wallets = big bucks🤷🏻♀️

That's interesting van. With Megasquirt and a one-off supercharger, I'm intrigued to see how much it goes for.

I bet there was a lot more than $30k into that build.... |
Yeah...wow wasn't expecting it to be that low (either were other watchers). I have to think that having it end on a holiday probably didn't help. Lucky winner there.

With 48hp I hope they include a front bicycle hitch so you can tow the van up hills.
