This 1984 Westy camper found its way to my computer earlier today and looks like a great desert dwelling specimen for only $9,900. It appears to have no rust and only has 138k miles on the odometer. Not much details provided here other than really nice pictures. Nice looking van. I emailed the seller to see if they can provide more details here. The van is available in Peoria, AZ, but I found it on the San Diego craigslist.
I’m hesitant of automatics as well. If the auto shifts and runs smooth, and doesn’t leak fluid, it might be worth a shot. I think the seller updated the craigslist after I sent them an email, as there was no mention (or pictures) showing it was an automatic. There’s a decent article on GoWesty about the pros and cons of each.

I was looking at this Westy, but was hesitant because it has an automatic transmission. Do you have any thoughts/opinions on manual vs. automatic? Thanks!
