OK, gang, last call on this Syncro in one piece. If it's not sold by the
weekend, I'll seriously consider parting her out. I'm asking $3000 firm.

This Syncro has about 155k (speedo was broken), has been repainted
sometime during it's life (champagne beige), no major damage, tennis
ball sized ding amidships on driver side, mild seam rust, small bubble
patch under driver door. It has diff lock, electric windows, rear wiper,
fold out rear bed, all working. VC tested, will move van with rear end
on trolley jack. Also has power locks and mirrors, needing help, and
A/C, needing charged. Bumpers are straight and have all the black
pieces. A mild vibration in the drive shaft is caused by a failing rear
U-joint, not bad yet but will need attention soon. New muffler and
steering rack were installed in Feb. this year. NO coolant leakage, but
oil drain plug needs a gasket. Doesn't burn oil. Tires (correct) passed
inspection (but need to be replaced for winter) and van passed the rest
of the Utah safety inspection. Emissions failed due to high HC levels at
idle, where there occurs an intermittent miss, which I assume to be the
cause of the high HC. I have as yet to determine the cause of the miss,
but a dry compression test yielded 120x3 and 110x1. Will do a wet test
tomorrow.

Another listee checked this van over rather thoroughly, but decided
against adding this to his stable of Vanagon projects. Pmail me for his
address if you want a neutral opinion.

Listees needing parts are welcome to drop a note with their needs and
offers, I'll keep them on file.

This is the last For Sale posting for this van whole.
