1989 Westy at $900 with 2 days left. Listed with the wrong year, wrong spelling... should end with a pretty low price. Bad for the seller, good for someone!

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


i've been around Vanagons a while and this is the first rust of this magnitude i've seen at this location ( i live in salt-free lands though). Looks like an armor-piercing round went through it!

If the frame has'nt been tweaked the price is still an uber-steal even w/ all the rust. Hell, the camper parts alone are worth the bid price on a parts-car.

Watch this one-- when the enthusiast bids pick up the guy will likely realize what he stands to lose, and nix the auction to re-list. So don't get yr hopes up. Happens on fleaBay all the time.

Looks pretty crusty...but a steal at the price. I'm tempted too, I have an 86 parts van that probably has all of the sheet metal and non-rusted parts below that one will need...wish I was closer.
