If this bus is worth 18, then I'm on a gold mine!

... I'm glad prices are raising, but I'm also kind of sad. I better get used to having the bus I have, and be ready and willing to make more rust repairs when needed. Because I wont be able to get another bus if I lose this one.


He's reaching for the stars at that price point. I think he's 10k high with his price for the issues that bus has.

As the other poster noted, he has the fresh air hose hooked to the stove pipe. The engine has all the tell tale signs of an owner that is not very well versed on classic VW engines. Fuel filter above the distributor. Running an 009 and other obvious issues.

It makes you wonder what else this bus has suffered through in regards to poor service and PM work.


that's not a 009 dizzy look at the condenser it's either a 010 or a 019 one of those and for 18k i think i would buy a new 20$ snorkel for the air cleaner. the fuel filter thing never bothered me. now having the air hoses hooked up wrong that's funny.

Now that's funny! Not just the go fu#* me (skills?) but that the blown engine isn't mentioned 'til the end of the post but if he's decided it's not for sale now he should put this ad inactive and beg in another forum.

I mean the balls of this mofo? I dont usually rag on people, but when I do............ Rolling Eyes Laughing

Im reading it as "my bus is so cool that lots and lots and lots of people have told me. So this expanded my ego and head leading me to believe that this bus is so amazing and people genuinely love it. A woman told me her little son with cancer touched it and was healed. Because of this, Im starting a gofundme. Not for me but for this amazing bus that brought joy to so many people while I drove it around vacationing and getting groceries. Id be amiss if I didn't give these lovely followers the opportunity to see the smiley bus fixed. So donate often and we will see if it shakes out, giving me the opportunity to sell the bus for way more or just keep it and any $ above what is needed to repair."

No? Dont you read that? What a Fucktard Rolling Eyes

OR, and I do mean this wholeheartedly, he could've lost his legs in a freak pillow fight accident or something. Pride getting the best, has not openly asked for charity and maybe this gofundme account is a good option for them to fix the bus, sell for more ultimately and pay off their medical bills?

I mean it could happen? Too cynical? Laughing Not enough? I like Unicorns. Dancing

He's just another follower of the "fund my lifestyle" travel series that now thinks that VW owners would rather give them $ & parts than fix their own shit.

Could someone give me an idea of what a Westy closet, top shelf, and jump seat are worth? I am thinking around $350 but I don't want to over price it.

On the plus side, the seller didn't do an earl Sheib and try to cover it up. The pics clearly show the condition. It's up to the buyer to figure if it's worth it.

That being said, though, I'm still shaking my head over a crusty '71 Westy up for sale here for $13k. I had seen it parked several months ago and left a note asking them to call me if they ever considered selling. I was surprised to get the call last week, and even more surprised to hear her asking price. And she said she came up with the price after looking thru The Samba classifieds.

Again, it's up to the buyer. This buyer said "no". But luckily I had purchased Chloe in the interim, so I wasn't desperate.
