HEy volks,
okay, sort of excited here so bear with me.  I just found an '87 westie for
sale in a nearby lot.  I currently have an '88 gl is good condition.  this
westie is in better condition that mine.  No seem rust, 100,000 mi power
windows/locks, 2.1L, automatic tranny, mag wheel (vw), no rust period. a few
blemishes but nothing major at all by the looks of it.  the interior, through
peering at night with a flash light looks in better cond. than mine and I've
replaced the capeting and all.  I've pretty much been bitten by the bug and
have really wanted a westie to replace my gl.  The only thing about this one
is the automatic tranny so far.  I know about the head gasket prob with these
wc, but is there anything else i should consider wiht an auto.
Oh, by the way this one has a tag of 12 grand
is this an average price, I know there is a place i can check the blue book
value for an estimate but where?
any help is a bonus
thanks
jon
'88 gl
