It is time to let go of my 1985 Volkswagen Westfalia. I purchased it from the original owner/family. I have done alot of work to make it road trip ready with my wife and 6 year old. We recently went to the east coast and back with no issues. The engine runs great, doesn't burn oil or leak. The manual transmission shifts like new. It has 153k on it and the odometer and speedometer still work. The AC works fine and has had alot of work done. I have made several upgrades over stock. I have also added AC to use at the campground with a panel that mounts in the passenger window. The Ac unit is 12k btu and 8k btu heat, both work good. Its sleeps 2 above and 2 below. This vanagon drives great, and will go 65-70 all day long. So before anybody asks, yes it will drive home. It has been a fun vanagon and gets lots of looks and compliments. Even though its not perfect cosmetically it is clean. I will list the work done below. All parts listed as replaced have been done in the last year and 2,500 miles.
Engine- original 1.9l runs great, heads resealed by previous owner. In the last year parts replaced: plugs,wires,cap, rotor, rebuilt throttle body by rocky jennings, intake manifold and plenum painted w/por 15 and new gaskets, fuel injector seals, all fuel lines and clamps, removed and painted and installed new grommets/gaskets/lines on fuel tank, idle control unit, oxygen sensor, fuel filter, muffler and tail pipe, just changed the oil w/ mobil one synthetic.
Transmission- greased all bushings, changed gear oil w/ proper brad penn oil, new slave cylinder. added shifter extension, quiet, shifts smooth.
lights/electrical- lights work, wipers and washer work, signals work but for some reason the rt. blinkers don't flash when the headlights are on.
interior- new north westy tent this spring, sunbrella material color taupe, 3 windows, cd player 4 new speakers, new german waeco 12v fridge, works great, runs quiet, keeps popsicles frozen, works 30 degrees out of level-made for boats, keeps 2 half gallon containers in door, made custom panel and door below for more storage, supposed to run for 3 1/2 days on battery. new agm deep cycle battery under rear seat, power max charger, blue sea fuse panel under sink, yandina combiner/separator, so it charges off alternator, also won't kill the starting battery sink works great w/ electric pump, extra 12v added in cabinet near rear seat for my daughter to watch movies, 4 point harness added for children safety, previous owner had a cb radio at one time so there is a block off plate added in dash and extra ant. on passenger side,
AC- removed and resealed ac unit, new expansion valve, drier, high pressure line, resealed compressor, new ac/fan switch, filled w/ redtek, 12v fan added to help get air to the front, can also be used to cirulate at night.
Wheels/suspension- Mercedes clk wheels w/aluminum Wolfsburg caps, new Pirelli extra load tires, new front an rear shocks, new upper ball joints, 12 mm spacers, new lug nuts, bolts, studs, new power steering rack and tie rods installed a couple of years ago by previous owner, new rear wheel cylinders and all soft brake lines, drives and handles tight.
Body/paint- wild 80's graffics and repaint which is not that great of quality, It hasn't bothered me since it is used for camping and I won't shed a tear if it gets scratched. It has its share of nicks, scratches, filler, filler in the front right and passenger door, pass. door has to be slammed shut, filler in rt rear, another spot in the left rear from previous owner's neighbor backing into it. The filler is from dents/damage, the chassis is solid and not rusty,no major rust, some small spots at some seams all areas pictured, I sprayed brown paint of spots so they won't stand out as much-pictured as well
parts removed- I removed the propane tank, it is included if requested. It will need painted and the valve updated. The original fridge is included if requested, it is like new but these fridges are small and don't work that well, I also have the original panel. The stove is there, I was going to add an adapter to run 1 lb propane tanks but never did,always used a Coleman stove
I have a 1980 westfalia for parts for an additional $500 if the buyer wants it.
I can assist with delivery after payment if I can haul it to and from in a day for the expense of fuel.
I may add more, I have retyped this 4 times and stuff disappears.I will add Saturday and take pics of the portable ac unit.
Shipping is up to the buyer. It can be stored here no problem. If you are from europe you will have to get your own shipping quotes. You can call during the day at 615-604-2567. I have a clean title in my name.
On Aug-31-13 at 07:02:01 PDT, seller added the following information:
temp II sensor, temp gauge sensor, intake boots were replaced on the engine as well, picture added of AC unit. I have spent several thousand dollars in maintenance and upgrades.

Peugeot will prove it doesn't offer cheater diesels
Thu, Oct 29 2015Our diesels are clean, really. That's the message from French automaker PSA/Peugeot-Citroen as it plans to go on the offensive in response to Volkswagen's diesel-emissions scandal. PSA will go out of its way to prove its diesels are as clean as advertised. The company is looking at disclosing "real-world" fuel-economy statistics as soon as next spring and will use an independent entity to vet the numbers, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments that PSA/Peugeot-Citroen financial chief Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon made to reporters this week. Such efforts may be vital, since roughly two-thirds of the vehicles Peugeot-Citroen sells in Europe are powered by a diesel engine. Last month, VW admitted that as many as 11 million of its diesel-powered vehicles were programmed with software designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. The news shook up the industry, especially companies that sell a good chunk of diesels. The EU itself may start instituting "real world" fuel-economy and emissions testing as soon as 2017. French regulators have said they may eliminate diesel-fuel subsidies that currently make diesel fuel cheaper to customers than gas. That adjustment may occur as soon as next year, since it's been pushed up in response to the VW scandal. Peugeot-Citron continues to reiterate that it has never installed software that was designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. Additionally, the automaker was more than a decade ahead of European Union mandates for engine components designed to cut soot emissions, so the company is hoping its track record makes a difference. It wants to be perfectly clear about that.
