Vehicle Detail
Up for sale is a 1981 VW Vanagon. I believe I am the second owner of this vehicle that has spent most of it's life in Missouri. I bought and drove the Vanagon up from Missouri to get a project vehicle that was rust-free. There is NO structural rust on this vehicle and it has not been in any accidents according to CarFax. There is a small spot of rust on the corner of the windshield and the rear hatch window. The interior is worn but useable. I have two good front seats that are from a later model Vanagon that should bolt right in. The front door seals and window rubbers are worn, but I have a set of front doors from a later-model vanagon that has very good seals and rubbers that are ready to install and paint. A brand new GEX Powermaster engine with all of the performance options was installed (by the local VW dealer) about 5 years ago and has very little mileage on it. The engine cost me about $3000 and the installation ran about $1300. Beyond that, here is a partial list of new parts installed as I was working on the restoration. New Gas tank. New fuel pump and fuel pump relay. New brakes. New brake and clutch master cylinder. New Bilstien shocks front and back. New Clutch package. New full coverage rubber front floor mats. Front Grill. New battery. New brake and clutch footpads. GT Performance Exhaust. Also included is a header-type quiet pack exhaust. This is a good solid vehicle that would probably be back on the road with little effort. What you are bidding on is a good 99% RUST-FREE southern VW with a brand new engine and many new parts. This will need to be shipped or picked up locally
