An '84 with a blown motor for $6K?, Thats ridiculous. My last Westy was an '84 with a blown motor, owned by the original owners granddaughter, and I got it for $1,200.00. Now some might think even that was too much, but it was in excellent condition and I was to find out later it had the gas heater option, which worked great once I flushed out the mouse that had taken up residence in the exhaust pipe!

Minimal rust is OK but when you see rust in Michigan you KNOW it is
from Michigan. Rockers gone Nothing but holes. Just scary at so many levels.
Anything out there within say 300 +- miles of Ann Arbor Michigan?
We know of 2 local but an 84 with blown motor and wanting 6k for it
is a bit much. The other local one smells of dead rodent so it is out
since we will probably never find the carcass.
