Subject:For Sale 80 Westy and 82 Parts-vanagon in Massachusetts

Hi everyone,

Earlier this summer, my son was selling his 80 Vanagon Westy (Canadian
model) which suffered a catastrophic engine failure and minor engine fire,
as well as an 82 Vanagon partsmobile.

We have the original engine from the 80. It ran well, but needs a
crank-pulley oil seal. The blown engine was a Bob Donalds rebuilt that now
has a hole in the case. There's a new clutch and heater boxes on the blown
engine, and I would imagine the heads and possibly the pistons are re-usable.

There are enough parts with the 82 to get the engine compartment
straightened out. A couple of weekend's work and the 80s a runner! Its in
good shape interior and exterior for an 80. Here's the web page the PO had
last year if you want to see pix:  http://home.nc.rr.com/gocindy/van.html

The 82 also has a weekender seat. The 82 donated its engine as a core for
the Bob Donalds rebuild...

The 80 has a brand new battery, brakes, etc...

He's asking $1200/obo for everything.
