How big a project do you want to take on? You can convert it to a WBX with a donor parts vehicle. The Tec Shop here in Seattle does Bostig/Zetec conversions on these as well. It's all about the condition of the van and the price, and how much work/time/money you want to put into it.

Hi All, Was wondering if there are any major gotchas with the 82 west that are worth knowing about? I'm thinking of upgrading to a westy b/c the family has grown. Cheers, Harry |
