sounds like a great deal..the Tiico conversion is like $5k and its basically
the same thing..   so youll be getting a '87 westy with a maintenance free
reliable engine instead of the sh*tty waterboxer  - and basically only be
paying like $2k for the camper (if you factor in the cost of the conversion)
 sounds like a great deal..
