We love this van but our growing family no longer fits. Tons of extras. Fully ready for extended off/on the grid living - including a Propex furnace. solar power. fully functional water. stove and everything else you need to camp and live in it. In a Vanagon shop in southern California. mechanic drove it. said “that Vanagon jams!” Tall gears in 3rd and 4th. Has an ‘86 2. 1 liter VW engine instead of smaller 1. 9 liter stock in 85's. Engine and transmission rebuilt 35k miles ago. Steering. braking. highway tracking. shifting all tight. Starts easy and runs well. Pick it up and head off on an adventure.
