<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>Hi, my vanagon is white, has 160K miles (just under that number). I've driven from California to Miami and from there to Philadelphia. I was going to put in one of Boston Bobs engines (the more powerful one, option three...) or a Suburu engine. However I've had a reality check recently and I have to face the truth that I can't afford my dreams.... so I better sell it, go back to California and see if I can start over in life. </DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV>It has AC but it hasn't worked since I've owned it. Don't know whats wrong with it. Went to a two AC shops and when I heard them telling me 134 was my only option (they didn't look at it) I said okay and left. Freeze 12??? R12??? I don't know... honestly.... I do have the windows tinted and that helped in California but on the East Coast the humidity just laughs at my tint. </DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV>There is some corrosion on one head gasket though its never leaked (I mean no puddles formed over night). I added moroso ceramic engine sealer and flushed the radiator before I left california. </DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV>So because I know the next owner should think about putting in a stronger engine (thats what I was thinking - I like the power of acceleration) (if you're just going to use it to pick up groceries it may suit you just fine - but if you plan on putting lots of miles on it then you should think about a replacement engine - thats my opinion - prove me wrong if you want to - I mean I put a lot of miles on a 71 Bus that had a crack in the&nbsp;case and leaked tons of oil and I had better luck with it than with an 81 320i BMW I had prior.....)</DIV> <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV>Anyway, I'm asking 2500. It looks good. </DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. <a href='http://g.msn.com/1HM1ENUS/c157??PI=44364'>Click Here</a><br></html>
