We bought this rare diesel Westfalia Vanagon as a prepper vehicle to drive to South America, then found we couldn't register it there because of its age. We have had everything repaired our mechanic could think of, and we don't want to let it sit and die while we are gone. Some rust but frame is sound. Furnishings stripped out- otherwise it would be a lot more expensive. Does have pop up, runs great. Diesel is slow but it's German, old school, pretty rare, and can be converted to veg oil. Very cool. Is parked at VW shop and shop owner is available for technical questions.On Jul-01-16 at 12:29:54 PDT, seller added the following information: This Assuan Brown 1982 diesel Westfalia Vanagon with Campmobile trim has some fading and rust, as shown, but is structurally and mechanically sound. 192k om. Engine is 1.6L- (I was told it was 2.4L but Mike straightened me out). Runs well, starts right up. All windows close and doors lock. Yes it is not too zippy, but we bought it as a survivalist/prepper vehicle- German, old school, and can be converted to veg oil. If the furniture hadn't been stripped out it would be pretty sweet. Everything that our mechanic could think of to do, we did. Our plan was to drive it to Ecuador, but then we found out that we couldn't register it there because of its age, so it sat for 4 months and then we decided to sell it. We had our VW mechanic do everything he could think of to make it sellable, and parked it at his shop before leaving the country. I am afraid we have lost the ticket for the initial overhaul I remember the clutch needed something to do with slavery, the timing belt, and a bunch of other small things. It was about $1750. Our mechanic is not computerized and I can't find the receipt- went to the bank to narrow down the date so he could search, turns out we closed that account.... Then I spent another $500 last week: oil change, light switches, fan switches, wiper blades, signal socket, electrical grease, lights, horn, fuel filter, battery charge. A well-known VW shop did the work and if you would like to speak to the very knowledgeable and venerable VW man who runs it I am allowed to give you his number. Drop me an email. We left you two radios and a repair manual, and a box of what appears to be spare belts.On Jul-01-16 at 12:38:00 PDT, seller added the following information: This Assuan Brown 1982 diesel Westfalia Vanagon with Campmobile trim has some fading and rust, as shown, but is structurally and mechanically sound. 192k om.
