While attending a VW event in St. Cloud, MN, I was informed that a local
guy has an 85 Weekender for sale for $ 600 or b/o.  The van is in St.
Cloud, which is 70 miles northwest of Minneapolis.  Details are as follows:

Engine was rebuilt a year ago, but this year a failed seal on the oil
filter resulted in it throwing a rod.  It is a brown Weekender with rear
seat/bed, poptop with bed, one rear facing seat behind driver (with storage
underneath), 4 speed, new clutch, good tires, good body with minor surface
rust only.  No other camper equipment was ever installed.

I have not seen the van, just talked with its owner.  He said that it was
working just fine until the engine blew.  Please call him (Chris) at (320)
253-9943.  I told him it seemed like a fine project for someone and that I
would post it on the List.

If someone is interested, I have a custom made bumper bracket and towbar
(and light kit) that will allow this van to be easily towed if the tow
vehicle is appropriate to the task.  I could be persuaded to lend it to a
careful List member for this purpose. You can contact me about the towbar,
but please call Chris about the van, as I have listed all info that I have.
