UP FOR AUCTION IS MY 1985 VOLKSWAGEN WESTFALIA POP-UP CAMPER. I BOUGHT THIS IN 1994 AND PUT IT IN MY COMPANY'S NAME WHICH WAS AN AUTO DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP IS NOW CLOSED SO I TRANSFERED THE TITLE INTO MY NAME IN MARCH OF 2010. SO EVEN THOUGH THE CURRENT TITLE SAYS PURCHASE DATE 2010, IT HAS BEEN WITH ME FOR SIXTEEN YEARS. I DID NOT DRIVE IT FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND STORED IT IN AN OPEN BARN. THE ELEMENTS HAVE HAD THEIR WAY WITH THE EXTERIOR OF THE VAN. IT HAS MULTIPLE RUST SPOTS AND PLACES WHERE THE PAINT HAS FLAKED OFF. THERE IS A SMALL TEAR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE POP-UP CLOTH. THE INTERIOR HAS SOME ISSUES ALSO. THE DASH IS CRACKED AND CHECKED. THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT IS THREADBARE AND THE REAR SEAT HAS A SMALL TEAR. THE CURTAINS AND THE REST OF THE INTERIOR ARE IN GOOD SHAPE. I HAVE TRIED TO SHOW ALL OF THIS WESTY'S WARTS IN THE PICTURES SO EVERYONE KNOWS THIS IS NOT PRISTENE AND WHAT THEY ARE BIDDING ON. WITH THAT SAID THIS IS STILL IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE AND WILL BE AN EASY REFURBISH JOB BECAUSE IT HAS GOOD BONES, JUST A LACK OF ATTENTION FROM ME. BECAUSE I DID NOT DRIVE IT THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS I HAD IT TOWED FROM THE BARN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC THAT I TRUST TO GO OVER IT FOR ANY SAFETY ISSUES. HE PUT ON A NEW FUEL TANK AND FUEL LINE. PUT ON A NEW STARTER AND SERVICED THE BRAKES INCLUDING A NEW REAR WHEEL CYLINDER. I WILL INCLUDE THE PAPERWORK OF ALL OF THE WORK THAT HE PERFORMED. THE TIRES ARE IN GOOD SHAPE AS SEEN IN THE ONE PICTURE. THIS VW IS TWENTY FIVE YEARS OLD AND WILL BE SOLD AS-IS! I HAVE TRIED TO FULLY DISCLOSE ALL OF THE DETAILS ABOUT THE CURRENT CONDITION OF THIS VW VANAGON. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I WILL ANSWER THEM. NOW THE GOOD NEWS! I AM SELLING MY VANAGON WITH NO RESERVE!! THERE IS A $500.00 PAYPAL DEPOSIT REQUIRED BY THE WINNING BIDDER AT THE END OF BIDDING AND A WIRE TRANSFER OF THE BALANCE IS MY PREFERED METHOD OF PAYMENT WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE END OF THE AUCTION. I HAVE MANY FOND MEMORIES OF MY CAMPER AND ALL OF THE PLACES I WENT WITH HER. IT IS HARD TO PART WITH BUT IT IS TIME FOR A NEW OWNER AND FRESH ENTHUSIASM ABOUT IT. WITH MY HISTORY OF BEING IN THE CAR BUSINESS I DO HAVE SOME CONNECTIONS TO HELP WITH THE TRANSPORTING OF IT TO ITS NEW HOME. I WILL CALL A CAR CARRIER FOR THE WINNING BIDDER TO CHECK ON DEALER RATES TO YOUR LOCATION. On Dec-03-10 at 06:08:34 PST, seller added the following information: I HAVE HAD A FEW SIMILAR QUESTIONS FROM LOOKERS AND I GUESS I NEED TO SAY YES THIS VANAGON DOES RUN!! I TOWED IT TO THE MECHANIC BUT I DROVE IT AWAY FROM HIS SHOP. IT IS A LITTLE COLD NATURED BUT ONCE IT WARMS UP IT IS READY TO FLY! I PERSONALLY DROVE IT THIS FALL TO MAKE SURE ALL IS WELL. BID WITH CONFIDENCE.
