Come take my 83.5 waterboxer away in Seattle, cheap.

---THE GOOD---
* 25k on rebuild by Fred's Garage in Redwood City, CA
* stove & fridge work fine, all tables included
* rare in-dash BEHR air conditioning system (don't know if it works)
* heavy duty 90 amp alternator for dual-battery charging system
* brakes done in 2002 - new master cylinder, rear shoes & cylinders
  and new pads up front
* clutch done 1/2001 and including rebuilt master & slave cylinders
*

---THE BAD---
* front drivers side wheel bearing sometimes squeaks, even
  though it was professionally(?) replace 1 yr ago
* rear of van shudders when releasing clutch into reverse gear
  only.  Clutch was replaced 1/2001 so mechanic says probably
  is motor mount issue
* rubber grommets on gas tank need to be replaced - these parts
  are included, I've been too busy to do the work myself
* can't find the drain cap for the water tank

---THE UGLY---
* It's got dents in the sliding door and above rear passenger wheel
  well
* I've used it as a work truck (daily driving) for my window washing
  business for the last 2 years.

Just make me an offer and take it away.  I've bought an Isuzu pickup to
replace the van.
