1983.5 VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper w/ 117k miles – Auction in New York State Ends 9/1

Relisted!  This was up for auction a while back but the buyer was overseas and the deal didn’t work out. This van is a 1983.5 VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper with 117k miles, stock 1.9L engine, stock 4 speed manual transmission, newer 3 window tent canvas, working kitchen and a few other recently replaced odds and ends.  The seller states it has a tendency to overheat if idling for too long, and that it does have a coolant leak somewhere, though not bad. It looks like they’ve decided to go the no reserve price route, which means you could likely swoop this for a steal, considering it’s got a few mechanical quirks. The exterior and interior look to be in great shape and show minimal rust, if any at all.  Find it up for auction in Lima, New York, ending September 1st. eBay Link

  1. Just resold for US $7200.

  2. After 14 bids from 5 different bidders, this Westy sold for $8,100. Pretty good price considering original mileage and condition, would have sold for at least $9k on the west coast.
