1986 Volkswagen Vanagon WESTFALIA

I purchased this in March of 2020 and have made it a solid reliable runner with tons of replaced parts, including a replacement 2.1 engine with lower miles (Just over 100k). It's a 4 speed manual. She runs and drives great. We never got to go camping in it, but have enjoyed it for hundreds of miles around the area. It's all original paint and has minor dings from life, but overall is very solid. No bad rust and structurally very sound (the underside is super clean!) I've worked through all the known gremlins and she is very roadworthy. It starts right up!I put a TON of time, money, and research into swapping the engine, buying quality parts, and not taking shortcuts on seals/gaskets, to prevent future issues. We unfortunately need to sell it, so it will be off to a new home.

I purchased the engine from someone who did a Subaru swap. I have probably put on about 300 miles or so. We wanted to take it camping but need to sell it before we get to do so.Other random notes:Top goes up and down easilyInterior and exterior were professionally cleaned by a local detailerEngine was replace by a low mileage 2.1 from a Westfalia from someone who installed a Subaru engine instead. TONS of new parts, and I did my research on each one to ensure that I was getting quality parts from reputable vendorsVery original and honest vanNo oil or coolant leaksThe window crank on the driver side was replaced by a custom one, but I purchased a brand new correct one but have not installed it.Rearview mirror came in the glove box and I have not put it back up. It may need repaired as the ball joint looks busted.Factory electric side mirrors (Which are better because they don't go in while traveling fast)Factory AC, and the lines have some charging them but the AC doesn't seem to kick on. I never took it in for proper service but it may just need evacuated and recharged. It's all there, I just never tested it.All warning lights go on in the car first starts but turn off quickly, as they should.Nice custom Westfalia-specific floor mats front and backAftermarket radio with aux inputCoolant was flushed with the engine swapMass airflow sensor was cleaned using mass airflow sensor cleanerRear pull out table was replaced at some point with a homemade oneAll curtains look to be there. It also came with the original snap cover curtain for the windshield Grateful Dead sticker came with the carSeam rust isn't too bad compared to many others in original paint.bottom bed's rear mattress pad's zipper needs repaired, still usableHaven't tested sink, I never hooked up water but the rebuild process is easy and cheap (If it doesn't work)Custom front center consoleTwo 6v batteries are installed under the center console upfront, relocated from under the driver seat.Pop top canvas has no major rips or tears, but the zippers are broken on the sides. They may be able to be repaired, but I just use safety pins to hold up the covers over the mesh. At one time I had aftermarket cruise control hooked up, but it wasn't hooked up when I purchased it.Bottom sleeping pad zipper is busted on one side, but it doesn't affect usability and I never tried fixing it.It has all Upper and lower mattress padsIt has the factory bug net for the rearStove works off of small propane tanksBatteries for cabin are located under center custom Console (by previous owners)Unsure if fridge works, I've never tested itI have a large stack of maintenance records / paperwork and manuals for the van.I believe it is 99% complete.
