After spending 3-4 months looking for Westy's in this area, an 87 came up at what seems to be a good price: 4sp, 190K (km), new engine at 120K, cruise, power mirrors asking $ 12,900 at a dealer... Average prices around here are about: 83-84 $ 9-13K 85-6 $ 12-14 87+ $ 16K+ (based on recent ads) The cheapest 87 I've seen lately has been 16K, so this one sounds good. It's been on the lot since the summer (they were asking 16,900) so they want to move it. ps: The engine replacement is said to have been done in Mexico, but I haven't seen it yet - is there any quick way to check for a proper engine code, etc? Any other input would be appreciated - I'm going to see it tonight, so please cc: to my e-mail.
