Subject:new member--85 Westy

Hi all,

After wishing for one for many years, a few weeks ago
I purchased a 1985 Vanagon Westy, 4-speed, 138,000
miles, head gaskets done, radiator replaced, decent
tires, interior in decent shape, body straight--except
(here's the rub) for some rust in the usual spots
along the seams, under the water and electrical
connections and windshield.

I just got an estimate of $3,000 for the rust repair
and complete repainting--if I do that I will have
around $6,000 into it.

What do list members think--is it worth the
investment?

Please forgive the newby question!

cheers,
jc
