Well, FAS does have turn key conversions to put their GenV 2.0L AVH into a loaf They just finished one and posted on their FB page (wife found it).
Lordy I can't imagine that thing with a 1600 a/c motor - you'd be so slow you might travel backward in time... _________________ '86 Westy FAS GenV Turbo (Marvin) |

BaT sales data I posted in a different thread. For entertainment only, I don't recommend drawing any conclusions from this.
All BaT T3s

I predict the winning bid is the exact same amount as the selling price in 1986: $17,530

No reserve. Does that mean they accept what ever the top bid is regardless? |

Yes. But it's BaT, so the deals are rarer than a blue moon. _________________ '87 Syncro

Surprisingly little action in the last 24 hours (3 bids going up only $1K) leaving this van with a $15K final bid not meeting reserve.

Nice Syncro tin top. Curious to see if the price jumps any above its current $16k:

Up $4K since you posted. This will be interesting to watch since the last few hours sometimes brings a number of bids. _________________ - Jim
