'86 Westy with some rust, dents and parts missing in MA. Should probably be cheaper but the market ain't what it used to be.

There's a couple up in Mt Shasta area, check the Siskiyou County craigslist. A bus and a tiptop I think.

I have been tempted but the images are pretty scary. I am going to try to look at it in person.

He has increased his price to 2k lol. New pics. I asked to take a look at it. I’m just wanting it for replacement front panels. I feel like $500 is reasonable for having to tow it home.

Defiantly think $500 is more than fair. If you end up getting it I would love to buy that big emblemed round head light grille off of it! |

$700 for a Syncro body and engine in PA. No drivetrain but looks like many useable body panels, glass and interior pieces.

I bought that engine & the ECU. The Charcoal interior was still there when I went. No real Syncro parts though.

and I sold that van. lol. It was definitely a $900 van but that didn't stop 45+ people from messaging me. It went quickly and i hope the new owner gets it back on the road like he plans to. |
