Subject:Buying and transporting a Westy? (longish)
From:Rex Hargrove
Date:Wed, 29 Mar 2000 19:51:31 EST

Hello all,
I am considering the purchase of a Westy in FL..  I live in TN.. and i am
not sure the engine will make the trip.  I would like the lists collective
wisdom on the purchase.
The van is an 84 with 150k, and a pretty mean dent on the drivers side(under
the water connections).  The seller is a dealer(makes me very worried), but
he has come off the price and offered to "assist" in shipping the van.  He
originally wanted 2900, but has now agreed to 1750 and split the cost of
shipping.  I realize this is not a rational decision, so I need your input.
Please let me know what you think about this situation.  I sincerely
appreciate your time.

P.S. Does anyone know the cost of shipping a van 688 miles(or around that),
or have alternative suggestions?
