1986 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon Syncro Westfalia Weekender Wolfsburg Description

1986 VW VOLKSWAGEN VANAGON SYNCRO WESTFALIA WOLFSBURG WEEKENDER

From the June 12, 2018 GoWesty online newsletter: “The 1986 Vanagon Syncro Wolfsburg Weekender is one of the most coveted VW campers on the planet.”

But, since you’re reading this, you probably already know that.

Here’s what I can tell you about ours….

131,226 very pampered miles. Licensed in Washington State its entire life.

Starts and drives like new. It’s ready to be driven across town, across the country or around the world.

Always maintained to a very high standard with a “spare-no-expense” approach.

All wheel drive. Locking rear differential. Rebuilt engine. New clutch.

The interior is beautiful. The upholstery and carpets are in great shape. It’s also had custom rubber mats up front and a custom cut and hemmed-edge carpet on the middle floor for years. All of the original curtains are in excellent condition. It has a full cover for storage.

Body and paint look great.

Factory A/C.

Includes all original owner’s manuals.

We also did numerous upgrades…too many to list…but here are a few:

Transmission rebuilt by German Transaxle including taller 5th gear.

Engine rebuild and new clutch at 122846 miles.

Stainless steel exhaust.

H4 headlights.

GoWesty upgraded alternator wiring harness.

GoWesty upgraded starter.

Hancook All Weather Tires including spare in 2016.

Upgraded VW Alloy Wheels.

Three VW headrests for rear bench seat with VW mounting brackets.

Front seats reupholstered. Extra fabric included.

Custom carpet (for middle area) and rubber mats (front area).

VW Tachometer.

Original Dometic refrigerator works great.

Miscellaneous body gaskets and rubber trim replaced as necessary.

Professionally tinted windows.

Cargo tray has new gasket, chrome brackets and screens over drain holes.

The Syncro all-wheel drive goes almost anywhere. The low gear pulls like crazy. The locking rear differential can get you out of just about any snow or muck you find yourself in. And the upgraded taller 5th gear is great for smooth, fuel-efficient highway cruising.

This Westy is 33 years old but it is in remarkably good condition and has been professionally and regularly maintained its entire life. As I recall the only things that aren’t working are the digital clock (I have a few replacements that I never installed) and the 6-disc CD changer, which may just need a good cleaning but I don’t know for sure. There is a 4.5 inch hole towards the bottom of each of the two front doors for some after-market speakers that were removed and never replaced. There’s a small rock chip in the windshield that was professionally treated to prevent further cracks. The poptop screen has a cut that was repaired.

ALL PHOTOS ARE CURRENT, UNRETOUCHED ORIGINALS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN PHOTOSHOPPED OR ALTERED IN ANY WAY.

We love our Westy very much and want her to go to a good home and a loving owner. Good karma matters to us. So please no scammers, low-ballers, tire kickers or complainers.
