Well, this marks the end of an era for me. I have to sell my '82 diesel vanagon.

I'm located in State College, PA.

The van is in really great shape- has new radiator, bosch certified rebuilt injection pump, new shocks, and I had it painted 3 years ago, original cookies and cream color. This van has been my baby, but I have to make room for my new Golf.

I'd like to sell this van along with the collection of spare parts and replacement engines I have. This includes 2 complete engines, 3 blocks, (1) 4 spd transaxle (works fine) and (1) 5 speed transaxle from a rabbit pickup. I have several heads that I've disassembled for the spacers, various states of disrepair.. collection of hoses, some specific to the vanagon.

Last but not least, the spare engine I have for the van has a complete engine carrier I know you all want and love...

I'd like to get $5000 for all of it.

Here are some photos-

It's the brown one. The white one is long gone. These pictures were taken right after the paint job (expensive paint job. I think it cost $4k if I recall correctly). It's still in great shape but there is some rush bubbling in the rear-most quarter panels. I know these can be replaced.

What do you think? Any takers?
