I have compared the various value guides and IMO the Kelly is closest to reality. Its the highest anyway. www.kbb.com good places to advertise are www.ep.com or www.westfalia.org . both of these are free www.autotrader.com and classifieds.yahoo.com both charge for ads ebay is a good way to go if your in a hurry but there is a hefty fee to sell there. probaby a good idea to look at vans for sale at these sites and adjust your selling price to be competitive. check out www.cars.com to see a database of newspaper classified ads ed reno NV 87 GL -----Original Message----- From: Ivan Boyd <boyd@UNM.EDU> To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Date: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 10:44 AM Subject: value of 85 vanagon westfalia?
