1991 VW Vanagon Multivan Westfalia
$38,000
Location: Seattle

I'm the second owner, bought from the original owners who cared for it meticulously, as have I. This vehicle is in amazing shape and drives wonderfully. No work needed, this is turn-key ready for travel. Van comes with a complete folder of service records since new from local indie VW specialists. All work in last two years done by Peace Vans in Seattle and Westy World in Chico, CA.

Reason for sale: being 6'4" I'm too tall to drive the van comfortably for extended periods and the whole setup is a little too snug for my wife and I. Test drives welcome. I'm happy to help with pickup if you organize shipping. I've tried to be as thorough and transparent as possible in the listing and photos. Please read it completely and if you still have questions, please ask and I will do my best to respond promptly. Posting is for van only, see list of extras below that will be included with the asking price. Bank transfer accepted for payment.

Specs:
  • West coast van its whole life, rust-free with exception of early signs of surface rust on rear quarter panel seams
  • Odometer reads ~268,800, will increase a little as van is in weekly use
  • Manual transmission, recently serviced
  • Brand new shifter mechanism
  • Subaru 2.5 engine conversion. Cruises over mountain passes easily, lots of power. No oil or coolant leaks. Donor engine mileage unknown.
