Hi again!
I am the happy owner of an 1986 GL Synchro, who unfortunately (:~() now
finds it necessary to liquidate my only real asset & travelling companion.
(Work prohibited me from selling the MAC.)
According to Edmunds the avg price is ~$3800 minus a high mileage penalty
(~$600), so I am asking $3200 for this VW classic:
1986 VW Vanagon GL Synchro
General
-135,400 miles
-well maintained by VW mechanics
-never in an accident
Exterior
-grey w/ silver+red 4x4 stripe at mid-body
-still holds a polish (no sun fading)
-minor rust (paint bubbling/flaking; no holes) on some body seams
-one minor dink at left front headlight (I still don't know where that
shopping cart came from)
-three of 4 original hubcaps
Interior
-blue fabric seats throughout (great condition; the most
comfortable driving
position of any car I have owned)
-blue carpet
-air conditioning (it takes a while on really hot days, but it
works well)
-new AM/FM cassette deck
Mechanical
-standard 2.1 engine & manual 4sp+granny gear
-regular oil change (every 3000 miles)
-regular tune-up (~once a year)
-no leaks (engine compartment is unbelievably clean)
-does not burn oil
-standard Vanagon intermitent overheating problem on highway
-plenty of wear left on 205-70r-14 tires
-recent brake job
Thanks,
jso
