- This is a solid camper. Drives very well. 4x4 works great. Paint is glossy. It looks great from 10 feet but is not a garage queen. It has some of the typical Vanagon seam rust (but minor) that has been repaired. Utility inlet metal has been repaired. Rock chips on front valence, etc. Has the typical Vanagon sliding door dent. I bought this in 2007 and have been all over the Western US and Canada in it. I would drive it anywhere without worry. $36,000. This is priced at the lower end of the Syncro Westy market. You could buy this, drive it a few years, then likely sell it for more than you paid for it. Will deliver anywhere in lower 48 or Canada for a plane ticket back. I' m not eager to sell, but marital bliss might level up if I do.
