from your description, it sounds like just a 7 passenger vanagon.
whats it worth?  $500-$1500, if that, especially since its the base model w/
vinyl non-armrest seats..

sad to say, but thats reality.   your almost better off parting out out if
you want to get any money out of it.  i had a guy offer me a running, inspected,
'84 GL passenger vanagon for $600 and i passed on it...

the only vanagons that are worth decent money are the syncros and late model
campers..

that being said, my own personal driver is a '84 passenger van and i love it,
i wouldnt want a camper..all those cabinets in the way that i would never
use..

good luck w/ your sale tho.. i'd start at $1500 and let someone talk you
down.
