Vehicle Description

1990 Vanagon Westfalia Multivan (i.e., Weekender)
2.1 L Waterboxer Engine
4 Speed Manual Transaxle

$33,000, or best offer.
I could also be interested in a full or partial trade for a 2001-3 Eurovan Westfalia Weekender.
UPDATE: I'm very eager to sell the van before winter.

Mileage: Unknown...the odometer was broken when I purchased the van. But, based on the CarFax records and information from the previous owner, my conservative estimate is less than 75k miles. The odometer was fixed, so mileage can now be monitored.

Body / Paint: 99% rust free. A decent respray at some point. Some minor paint touch-ups done in spring 2019. One of the jacking point holes in the fiberglass body cladding is cracked -- I have a replacement, but it’s not installed. Minor crack and repair to fiberglass luggage rack, only visible from the top.
