1985 VW Volkaswagen Wolfsburg Vanagon For Sale Westfalia poptop and Weekender interior. Only 160k miles on the odometer. A very nice and versatile set up for a Vanagon. More practical for everyday use, but can be loaded up with gear for longer excursions. Seats 6 including driver, with a rear facing single seat and a fold out table. From what I have read the Wolfsburg Edition models come with a different trim on the interior, and a special Badge on the exterior. For this restoration (and to be clear, this has over $9,000 in parts just installed, not a restore that was used and being passed on, you will be the one to experience ALL the Newness!!). I had the opportunity to build up a motor to replace the stock 1.9L motor. It's compression was good, but I found a spot where it might have been leaking coolant. So, why not upgrade to a 2.1L motor? The 2.1 MV has larger displacement making more HP and Torque due to the longer stroked crankshaft. Well we did one better and built a 2.1L DJ motor. The DJ is a higher compression piston that many covet and from reliable sources is said to produce 112-114 HP over the stock 1.9s 85-90 hp. Some good quality AMC heads refurbished with new TRW valves, intake and exhaust. The pistons and rings are also brand new OEM VW. To compliment this motor I've added on some Mansi multi point injecters (added smoothness and almost 5hp!) paired with their 1.25:1 ratio rockers(another 3-4hp). My estimated end HP is 116- 120. Closest you can get to a Subaru conversion or a GoWesty motor, but without the extra $7- 15,000 added to the price tag! I'm really happy with the power amd torque this motor makes. Transmission shifts quiet and has a positive feel going into each gear. The stock exhaust from BD sounds really good and one of the VW guys in town caught me at the store to tell me how nice it looks and sounds. The interior looks great! Sewfine did a masterful job on the carpet and covers. With some additional wood trim pieces it has a fresh and welcoming feel with the earthy mocha and medium brown tweed seat covers and cocoa carpet.

We've spent 5 months on this Van, as she needed allot of tlc. But the good news is she was put in the right hands at the right time to preserve and restore a most excellent machine. While all the fuel, coolant and hydraulic systems were removed the bottom chassis of the Van was scraped sanded and sealed in every nook and cranny that can be seen and many that can't. Then each part that was to be reused was sanded and painted. The nice part about going so far in mechanically is the areas it exposes that can then be sealed with an undercoating. We are very pleased with how this project turned out. Includes rear hatch bug screen and snap in windshield and front door curtain. Also includes a Dometic Electric Icebox. Has the two mini ice cube trays and works great! Runs on shore power or the batteries 12vdc while driving down the road. Available with brand new General Grabber AT2s (205/75R15). These will be available for an extra fee and can come with one or two full size spares. Also, any 14" tire you might want to replace the new Hankooks with can be facilitated. A prospective buyer asked what I would do next on this Van. Probably redo the window seals. There are small pock marks randomly throughout the paints surface, and the biggest blemish on the Van is the area behind the front bumper (lovingly referred to as the bathtub) that I purposefully did not touch so it would not seem that I was trying to hide it. A previous owner has cleaned and sealed it, but I would have the body shop replace it the next time she goes in for a paint job in 7-10 years. But really, I diligently addressed all the issues that would affect its usability. You are not going to find a better bang for buck deal on a Westfalia, just look at the ads priced above and below mine in price. Some very nice Vans to be sure, but this one easily beats them out in value hands down. Transport Available: Depending on the time frame and location. Typically the buyer pays for a Uhaul trailer rental with insurance and fuel to location and estimated return fuel and if its a really long drive a cheap motel room. This is usually the safest and least expensive way to recieve your new bundle of joy, but I also have some transport company conections to refer folks. Will work with any shipper you prefer.
