Hi everyone, been a while! Hope you've all been well and are having a good
new year...
Would one of you please cross-post this to the Vanagon list? I will once
I'm back on, but can't right now. Thanks.
A couple of items of interest:
I'm helping a neighbor sell her 1986 syncro westy, 179K, and wanted to get
it out to the list for interested parties. It's champagne with the white
top, and brown interior. I've looked it over and will be happy to provide
the details of my inspection and contact info to anyone who's interested.
Overall, it's solid and rust-free, and I'd call it about an 8 out of 10. It
will need a VC and a rear heater core post haste, but otherwise is in good
shape. I think she's asking around $15K, but not totally sure.
In other news, I have the opportunity to pick up a wrecked syncro 7-pass for
next to nothing. I think it's about an 87 or 88, and is also the champagne
color. I hate to see it go to the crusher because there's still a lot of
good stuff on it, so I'm considering parting it out as a service to the
vanagon/syncro communities. I would probably make a little money on it as
well, but not a lot. Anyway, some of the notable items that are in very
good shape include:
Both front doors
Slider (needs a window)
Most windows
All seats--these have grey vinyl sides, and a cloth top--sort of a
criss-cross pattern. No tears/burns/etc. There are the two fronts, the
rear/bed, and two jumpseats with all hardware/mounts/seat belts. Since
they're still in the van, I can take instructions on how to cut them out if
you have special needs for lots of plate, etc.
5 sp. tranny with diff lock
Driveshaft
Front diff
Probably no VC since this may get used by a friend
Probably no motor for same reason
All front end parts (headlight assemblies, grill, steering rack, rotors,
etc.)
Skid bars (not sure about the engine skid plate, it may be damaged but I
think it's ok)
Power window switches
Power mirrors
Cruise components
Speedo (not sure about condition, i.e. seized or not, etc.)
Set of four black steel wheels with the small circular holes around the
lugnuts and good tires (one tire is mismatched, haven't seen the spare yet)
And so on...
I'll probably only take this on if it would be helpful to you all, so let me
know what would be useful to you, what you'd pay for it, and where you are.
I'm still in Louisville, CO (near Denver, zip 80027), and would deliver
stuff within a reasonable distance, and/or ship.
Take good care and I'll talk to you all later.
