I see from your website you are in Colorado, which should be a good market.
Nice photos BTW!

I've sold two VW campers, an '84 Westy in 2006 ($6000), and a '97 EVC in
2009 ($27k). Listed both on The Samba and Craigslist, & sold both to local
buyers on Craigslist.  Given the unknowns regarding conversions, your buyer
will need to be happy being his/her own mechanic, or at least reasonably
mechanically inclined, unless they can find a mechanic willing to work on
it.

I also recently purchased an '85 Westy that's rust free and original with
140k, but needed work, for $7500.  They all need work.  Constant work.

I'd list yours for $4995 and see what happens.   Eventually you'll find the
right price and likely sell it locally.

Good luck!

Stuart

I would appreciate educated opinions about the selling value of my Westy.  I
have not quite decided for sure to sell it but would like to know first what
I could get.
