good people,

i'd like your advice on what you think a fair asking
price would be for this van.  i have seen similar vans
going for over 10k but i think that's ridiculous.  not
that i wouldn't mind 10 big ones in my pocket, but i'm
looking to be reasonable.

here are some photos:

and here are some details:

1986 volkswagen wolfsburg weekender with 166,000 mi.,
pop-top with spotless canvas, power-assisted steering,
privacy glass, corduroy interior, water and oil tight.

all work has been completed by VolksCafe in santa
cruz. when i first purchased it in october 2003, i had
a buyer's inspection done, flushed the coolant and
replaced the vulnerable hoses.

here's some of the work that i've had done:
new catalytic converter
new main seal
new clutch
new right rear cv axle
replaced coolant hoses and performed coolant flush;
added lower temp fan switch
tune up: sparks, plugs, wires, dist. cap, rotor,
timing adjustment
oil changed every 3K

also, the van has a cd/radio. however, the stock
speakers on the right side are no good anymore. the
wiring to them is alive but the speakers are dead.

the A/C needs recharging per the guy I bought it from.

passenger side window is power, left side door was
converted to manual - this is more dependable and less
of a hassle so I've left it that way.

bentley manual included.

any guidance is much appreciated.

thanks
