I've done both.
I have always financed long term daily drivers because it makes since to me to pay over time for anything I drive daily.
But I have always paid cash for project vehicles, and to-date I've owned over 50 project vehicles including quite a few VWs.
Thanks, Tom Hargrave

I was lucky (I got good job), I never purchase a vehicle using a loan from a financial institution bank or credit union so I can't give you any advice but as already mentioned the fact that a vanagon requires update/upgrade/repair to consider after purchase then the question is: how a buyer will be able to follow up if there's no fund left? - borrowing more or park the van and wait for more funds?. I'd think save now, wait and buy later make more sense.
good luck.
