Subject:Wanted: Syncro or 2WD camper
From:Karl Mullendore
Date:Sun, 25 Feb 2007 11:40:50 -0500

I'm looking for a new van for my personal use. Recent catastrophic
issues with my old Syncro (I'll post more later when I recover) have
convinced me it's time to move on and try to salvage a western trip
while winter is still happening. Ideally, I'd like to start with a
pristine, rust-free body, cosmetics not that important. I'm open to just
about anything that will allow me to get in and drive on a trip soon.
Ideally, a Syncro Westy, but I'm not willing to pay the current inflated
price for a 'nice' one with hidden/overlooked issues. Yeah, I know the
value, however I'm looking for a driver not a beauty queen with makeup.
So, what I'm looking for, in order of preference:

1) Syncro Westy
2) Syncro poptop no-kitchen
3) 2WD Westy
4) Syncro passenger van
5) OR, if some kind van owner has a 2WD or Syncro they like to
rent/lease to me for 4-6 months, that would be awesome as well. I could
pay with repairs, upgrades, etc. :-)

If you'd like to cross-post this to any other groups, feel free to do
so, and contact me at <karl999 at westyventures dot com> if you have any
leads. Thanks!
