Hi all,

New to the list but for all the wrong reasons.  Life circumstances (Baby #4
on the way -- new wife does not think VW Vans are safe, wants airbags and
all that "Fancy" stuff...) force the sale of my my 87 Westy Weekender
(Pop-top, fold out bed, AC DC Fridge - but no stove/sink).  Had it at
Bugorama today (5/26) in case anyone was there.  Anyone interested please
send me an email:

Lou@ranchomurieta.org

Pictures available via email.  Here is the text of my window ad:

Hope this does not violate any list etiquette.  If it does -- apologizing in
advance.

Lou

1987 Volkswagen Westfalia Camper

The Good:

This is a great car.  4 SPD, Air Conditioning (recently repaired), Pop Top -
Seats 6, sleeps 4 - 5, Table, AC/DC Fridge with separate battery, Rear
storage cabinet, new battery, all new pop top seals, tent is like new, new
skylight and seal, new CV joint boots, new clutch, new rotors and front
pads, new rear grease seals and all 4 engine mounts are new.  Smogged
5/25/2002.

The Bad:

Paint is okay.  Driver's side was resprayed once (reason unknown) and has
faded more than original paint.  Odometer is broken.  Estimated mileage at
130 - 140K.  I bought it from a mechanic who had recently had engine rebuilt
(or put rebuilt engine in...).  No head leaks and engine is very strong.
That was in 1996 and I estimate I have put 50 - 60K on the car since then.
If it was perfect, I wouldn't be asking $6800...  Don't take my word, have
your mechanic check it out.

Very straight original car, life circumstances forces sale.

Asking $6800 OBO.
