I live North of Chicago and call the owner of the 88 Westfalia with
"571 miles". The gentlemen was very rude on the phone he said that it
was his fathers who is or was a VW collector it had been up on blocks
for years, is what he told me. As I said he was very rude, I asked him
the price and he said he wanted to get around the sticker price. I had
an Idea of what the sticker was but I asked him any way, "so what did
they sell for back in 88", he said $26,000 at that point I was totally
turned off. I did not call him on the price, I now they sold for about
$20,000. I said that is to much for us and told him thanks but no
thanks. That was almost a month ago and it is still up for sale. I
hope he chokes on it. I do not think there is any way he will get that
kind of money for a 11 yrs old van there is not even any warranty.
What if the motor blows at 1500 miles. Any way we found an 88 with
only 59,162 miles on it in West Chicago. How lucky are we?
Thats all,
Todd
