I have finally decided to move on and let someone else get their hands on my Eurovan camper. I'm eternally grateful to those here who provided lots of advice, help, encouragement as I brought her back to life.
Backstory - a family friend purchased this new in late 2002, drove it only 14k miles over a 5-year period, then became ill and passed away. The van sat on her carport until a little over a year ago when her daughter decided it was time to get it out of there and I was fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time.
In hindsight, it didn't really take too much to get this back into top running order. I replaced the fuel pump and filter, tracked down some faulty wiring to the throttle body and speed sensor, repaired the rear brakes, replaced batteries, replaced the tent canvas and did some clean up. But surprisingly straightforward given the amount of time that it sat.
I currently have it listed for auction at Bring a Trailer with the listing ending this Wed 3/3/21. I'll post the link below for anyone interested in following along for entertainment. lots of photos there too. Again - I can't thank everyone enough here at The Samba for all the help!
