Hey Miguel!

All aircraft have airframe and engine maintenance logbooks where ever
maintenance activity is recorded. Why not a Vanagon maintenance log book
kept in the glove box. Keep all sales receipts to go with it. Record
every action done to the vehicle in that book. - date, time, and mileage
on the odometer and maintenance item completed. It doesn't have to be
elaborate, but it creates an invaluable history of the vehicle. Such a
record helps sell it for top dollar when the time comes.
