Been talking to this fellow selling an 87 Westy in New York state, and
I was just about to buy it for $5200, but I just can't due to
financial issues.

Anyway, I have been on the phone and talked with Chris, he seems like
a very decent, honest guy. He is willing to fix some of the big issues
(bumper, window regulator) before selling and he just did the head
gaskets and some other stuff. He's a vee-dub guy and has a 91 Westy
and a safari van.

I have no affilliation at all with Chris (it was the $1200 shipping to
Seattle that killed this for me), but I wanted to just put this out
there. Looks like a nice van with only 127K, and the Carfax I ran said
this lived in San Diego CA until 90K, has a clean title, and no
accidents or odometer fraud reported. Here is where to see it:

It has an awning that is not shown in the pics too.

Cheers.

83.5 Westy (with all new exhaust system, yeah! Running great, for now.)
