Hello-

I was in a junkyard yesterday and am baffled by
the Vanagon I saw there.

First, it is a Westfalia and it is a peach color.
It had a beige /tan interior.

Then I looked at the engine- a 2.1 WBX.
I looked at the door jamb and it it had a sticker
that read Non-Catalyst, 1981 manufacture year.
Hmmm, that made me think this was formerly a
Diesel. I looked in the cab- sure enough, a
Diesel floor duct between the seats.

I looked in the engine compartment- there is no
Diesel battery tray, and there is a factory air
cleaner mount. There is no evidence that the tray
was removed.

Then I got in front of the van- rectanglular
headlights. Big VW emblem grille.

It also has power steering, and 84-later style
cast front lower control arms.

This is a 1981?? Do you know what this is?
I have the VIN if that will help.


Robert

1982 Westfalia
