It's rebuilt engine seized up after only 10k miles. The rebuild company (that the original owner bought the engine from) would not honor the warranty since it could not be proven that poor maintenance was not the cause of the failure. It was a one owner machine and Jeff says she took good care of it. After the rebuild crapped out she wanted nothing to do with it.

There's a replacement window inside to fix that. <http://www.kippert.com/vanagon/88carat/> > > > |
