The first is a 1981 vanagon L that has = 198,000 miles on it. I got for a trade for my Honda Civic which was a = heap! I had to put about $300 into it to get it reliable. It was missing = lots of body parts and had some rust, but it ran and ran reliably. After = about 10,000 miles, the front brakes were junk. The calipers froze up = and the rotors were grooved. Replaced the whole works. Changed a CV = joint somewhere along the way. Now it sits behind a garage with a leaky = tank, bad CV joint, and blown front seal. It is being traded for a new = paint job on my new van.

It is a 1983 Vanagon L with 93,000 = miles on it currently. It is a project van that I got out of a junk yard for $400. Had to put in a new motor and clutch disk for about = $475. New tires all the way around $200. Odds and ends = $100 Approximatley $1200 into it right now. Some rust and two holes = that are now being worked on finished off with a new original color paint job for = trade for the 81. It still needs a new back bumper, three end caps, = rubber stripping for both front and back bumpers, so if anyone has these for = sale please let me know. Sometime this week, a new gas tank is coming = because the one in it right now got caved in when the fork lift pulled it out of = the junk yard. I'll be changing the fule line at the same time. = When I am done I will be guessing around $1500. Check it out at my = website www.daneggert.com =
