Gratuitous ad bump here. I started this thread years ago.
Now I'm moving on (unfortuntely) and selling my best friend of 15 years.
I feel like it's a great deal because I know the bus and what it took to get here. Wutchoo guys think, priced right?
Thanks for looking.

I like the Frankenstein stitching on the front bumper. Happy trails!

An east coast score.

Syncro Westfalia. $8K.
Original factory Syncro Westy with Locking Differential.
Been sitting for 10 plus years.
Exceptionally Rusty New England Syncro.
Replacement rebuilt GEX (I would assume useless) engine installed with a new exhaust a few years ago but never started.
Does not run but rolls and steers
Interior is actually nice but horribly mouse infested.
About 120k on the odometer.
Perfect donor Syncro
$8k or make an offer.
Paperwork available.
This is not a running and driving vehicle
Exceptionally rusty, assumed junk engine and horribly stinky...
Another man's junk is another man's treasure. Is it bad that I see the good in it? |

Oh, that is the interior I want. Do you think paying $2600 is worth it for the pop table, jump seats, and curtains? If it were already in the DC area, I'd be all over it. But it's just far enough I have to think about it. _________________ '87 Syncro
