1978 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Description

For sale, I have a beautiful and unique Volkswagen Bus for sale. Its a transporter, everything works and its absolutely amazing to drive.
Some years ago, before we owned it the WRX 2.0 Turbo engine was swapped into it. It has about 230 Horsepower and gets about 17 MPG as we have tested it.
This thing has amazing power, its actually quite fast.
Has dual radiators in the back, Porsche brakes, and a heavy duty 4 speed manual transmission.
In my records I have a complete write up of the swap and full wiring diagram.
Any parts we've ever needed can be found at your local parts store.
Has 50,000 miles on it, great heat, cools very well. No air conditioning but I'm sure you didn't expect it.
-Drivers seat cushion bottom was replaced for comfort reasons with a 04 Subaru Forester seats however I have the original.
-All three rows of seats are in there and original good condition.
-We can pick you up at the airport, and yes I feel comfortable to have it driven anywhere home.
-shipping is about $1000 just about anywhere and cheaper the closer to MN you are.
The Bus is from Washington State and does not have very much rust, it has never seen a winter.
Please feel free to give me a call or text with any questions at 612-964-7609 Thanks!
