Hey gang, Please help me determine a reasonable asking price for my 83.5 Westfalia. -Good straight body with no rust. A few minor dings and dents. -Good original paintwork, still glossy. A reddish brown color. -Very clean and complete original interior. Brown and beige. -New Michelin MX reinforced tires, new chrome hubcaps. -New hatch struts, CV boots, muffler, tuneup, coolant flush. -Does not consume or leak oil or coolant. -Manual trans. Runs strong, avg. 21 mpg on a recent 2500 mile trip. -Will not pass smog due to faulty valve sealing per local mechanics. Strange considering above performance. -Brakes, shocks, electrical system good. A/C, cruise, front heat needs work. -Sink and stove fine. Fridge needs attention. An excellent camper for someone not in a smog check zone or for someone willing to troubleshoot. Drives and runs very well otherwise. I love this vehicle but I plan to buy my first house soon and do not have time to sort out the smog mystery and need the cash for a down payment. I figured $4000-4500 to be fair. What do you think?
