      '86 Westy, needs home - $1,000 obo
      My dad needs to part with his '86 Westy. He doesn't do the
internet so I'm posting this for him. This Westy needs a good home.

      '86 Vanagon Westfalia. The mileage is over 100,000; I think
about 112,000. Don't know why I don't have that in my notes. Pop top
with canvas that has some holes from rotting; about 12 - 14 inches on
each side.. No
      fridge. Very little rust. Interior is pretty good except for the
driver's seat which is worn.

      Needs work - he's been told by a non-VW mechanic that there is a
possible low compression in one cylinder. He's also been told that it
might have a clogged fuel injector.
      There is a piece of exhaust pipe that is rusted through but most
of the exhaust system is good. The van starts but has been garaged for
two years.
      There is no license or insurance. It needs a handbrake cable.
The buyer would need to arrange delivery. The van is in Cleveland,
Ohio. They'd rather not sell it but we're not mechanics and neither of
us are in a position to put $$ into the van.

      Dad's asking $1000.00 obo. Please contact him directly at
216-321-6225. He does not have voice mail. Let the phone ring 8 or 10
times. They're usually home but it might take a while to get to the
phone.
