Gasoline

Southern California original 2-owner vehicle. Has Factory A/C, but compressor is not installed. Have ETKA, factory and other manuals and extensive literature. Have many spare parts, including extra ECU's. Just passed Calif smog check with new EGR parts, and plates are paid thru Jun2011. Underbody and frame is totally rust-free. Propane stove and fridge not used past 10yrs. Has Dual battery system, electric heat, VDO gauges for head temp and oil temp. Pop-top tent has been patched and has broken zipper on front-facing screen. Original factory paint in good shape, but passenger side has heavy water spotting from lawn sprinklers. Michelin 6-ply tires have good tread, but sidewall cracking. Koni shocks all around. Transmission is perfect. This van is driven daily, and could be used as-is, or detailed out to be cherry. Pick up in Los Angeles zip code 91364. If you're not a Vanagon person, please don't bid. These are great trucks, but they have limitations (air cooled, low hp, fussy when cold, etc.). Need down payment at close of auction, and must be picked up 2 weeks later, or will offer to second chance buyer.On Jul-27-10 at 13:36:40 PDT, seller added the following information: I added pictures of some of the defects in my van. The rear bumper is bent (front bumper has only a minor dent), all bumper end caps are worn and/or cracked, the outside body seam on the driver's side below the outlets is rusty, the cigarette lighter is missing, the decorative panel under the dash between the front seats is missing, both tabletops are cracked (but perfectly useable), and the carpet ahead of the back seat is damaged. Some of the literature I have: Bosch L-jetronic Manual, VWOA Pro-training Fuel Injection manual, VWOA Wiring Diagram Manual, VWOA Vangon Dealer Repair Info, VWOA Service Training Program, ETKA repair & parts manuals (both CD and printed copies), along with assorted brochures and information.
