Description for Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon 1980

You are looking at our baby, our 1980 Volkswagen Westfalia, proudly named Blue. She is a great condition 1980 Air-cooled Volkswagen Vanagon with the Westfalia full camper conversion, and we are sad to see her go.
If you know Westyâ€™s you know the lifestyle, if you donâ€™t, you will immediately fall in love with owning such a fun van. We really do not want to sell, but recently bought a home and have no place to keep it any longer.
We have owned it for about a year and a half, and have done quite a bit to it in within that time, everything listed below has been done within the last year to year and a half.
- New Brake pads, front and rear, new brake drums in the rear.
- New brake Lines front and rear
- New Fuel Lines (a must) throughout engine compartment and the feed side of the fuel tank
- New Bosch Fuel Pump (old one was making noise)
- New Fuel Filter
- New Engine mounts
- New Clutch and resurfaced flywheel with OE quality Sachs clutch
- New Serpentine Belt
- New Spark Plugs
- New Air Filter
- New Cap and Rotor
- New Bilstein shocks front and rear (very smooth)
- All fluids (oil and transaxle) replaced
- New Steering wheel bushings
- New Hardwood Floors in main area
- New Carpet in driving area (from Gowesty)
- New Stereo with bluetooth
- New Starting Battery
- New Napa Coach battery that is wired to run rear electronics without draining main battery (also charges while driving)
- New Dual Battery Charger, just plug the van into the wall and it will charge both coach and starting batteries
- New 1000w power inverter, for operating small electronics, wired to one of the rear power outlets
- New DIY paint job, it isnâ€™t perfect, and could use some work, but it kept the rust off the body.
- Bluetooth amp for rear speakers while parked
- New Canvas Top, no tears or rips and should be good for years to come.
- New water lines for sink and water tank
- New Adjustable voltage regulator
- New Battery cut off switch for coach battery with modern fuse panel
The Good ( in addition to the above)
- Previous owner reupholstered the interior, there are some tears behind the driver seat.
- Fresh General All Terrain Tires with lots of tread left (van came with these)
- Clock works
- Fridge works
- Stove works
- Comes with the Big Green Westfalia Bible
-Regularly gets 20mpg on highway
-Passed smog 8 months ago
The Bad.
- Odometer is broken, is stuck at 78,000 miles but I would assume quite a bit more than this.
- Will need a water pump for the sink soon, will lock up if not used for a few weeks.
- Paint was a DIY job
- Some rust around the windows
- Missing door under the rear passenger seat
- A few dents in the sliding door, and in front of the rear wheel on the driver side
- Steering rack has a torn boot (comes with a replacement)
- Small oil leak (believe its from the oil cooler)
- Needs a new windshield washer squirter (pump works fine)
- One heater box cable is frozen, needs replacement, but heater still works fine.
Whew. I am sure there are more things that I have forgotten, but it should be a great van for someone to make their own or to use as is. We just took it on a trip up to big bear and it performed great. Again we are sad to see her go, but are excited to see where she will go next.
