   Least I've seen is about $1500...I've seen a few for $2000, usually with
something busted (like the WBX motor)..I've dickered a bit on a couple in
the $3-4K range but never closed a deal.   That's about what I would pay
for one in the Northwest or the Mountain west.   Not more...
   I do see some really pricey ones, advertised as 'really nice, needs
nothing'...but I bet that is BS....Every Syncro needs something
(grin)...Even that one Tom Hanks bought from Go(ld) Westie, that broke down
on his first trip, out near the Salt Flats,  I recall...
  They do seem to be going up because we Vanagon Nuts have started buying
and selling them on speculation.
