You are not going to "fix and drive off" in this rig.  Lots of critter nests in the engine compartment, so you can bet the wiring is chewed up.  Sitting opened up like that in the Louisiana humidity and rain, it's got to have some serious mold. Probably some bullet holes too, given the vandalized wind wings and taillights. But, the engine is there and it's an automatic.  Probably best to do an engine conversion rather than replace all the expensive Vanagon engine bits.

Worth about $1500 IMHO, it's going to need some serious decontamination and restoration.  It may be worth more as parts.  Some lucky dog's gonna get it!

Yep, location, location, location. Taking the ad at face value, on the West Coast that might be sold in 1 day for 3 times that price.
