I'm sitting on a very clean 85 hardtop with no drivetrain right now for that
reason.
It's hard to find any Vanagons around here in good shape for less than 3k.

He is asking a high finished van price for a basket case project van. It
is more likely that it will end up at a crusher than ever be put back in
use as a completed van. I would like to have it but I'm far from a
typical buyer. Hardtop vans have spiked a little in price lately around
me and I have some damaged/rusty Westy vans that need new bodies. It is
a shame that so many good bodies have already been crushed due to
mechanical issues. I guess that is part of what makes the remaining vans
as valuable as they are.
