Gilles,

Ask yourself...what is this van worth to you?  No rust?  Clean interior? On
a scale of 1 to 20? Any features? - wired for two batteries?, furnace?,
great sound system?, all the electical components work?  What doesn't
work...other than the motor, what needs replacing?  Shocks, brakes,
steering, alignment, wheels, tires...?.  Is there a market demand for
Westfalias in your area?  Why aren't you plopping in a subie or other
foreign motor let alone a rebuilt wbx...does the dead motor come with the
van?

If the body is pristine, the paint still shines, and the supporting parts
noted above are in good condition - meaning they still have life and you
live in the Pacific Northwest - then you most likely could get between
$2,500 to $5,000 for the van.

Give us a little more to go on and the list can probably pinpoint the value
a little more accurately.
