All parts not specific to the Water Cooled will swap.
85 Up sliding door and panel, longer, no fit.
Late 83-up disk rotors have larger outer bearing but will fit.
Lots of luck, but if it was me I'd part it out.
If it was a Westy I'd restore it but Vanagons just aren't worth the
investment unless you're using it for a trade.
You'll definitely have to drive your money out of it.
