It would be of considerable value to someone looking to convert a clean 86 or later Westfalia to Syncro, especially if it has the locking rear diff.

One would have to presume the trans and front diff, especially the VC, were all toast, but the van would provide cores that could be rebuilt plus all the unique parts needed for the conversion.

It could be worth much more to the right person, but there is no way its worth less than $1000.
