Vehicle Overview

Are you ready to hit the road in style and nostalgia? This 1986 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia is a timeless classic that combines retro flair with German engineering, but most importantly, makes people smile.

Whether you're a seasoned traveler or a weekend warrior, this Westy is your ticket to freedom.
Spacious Interior: Step inside to discover a roomy cabin designed for comfort and versatility. The rear seats fold down to create a cozy sleeping area, perfect for camping under the stars or concert get-aways. Pop the top for headroom/storage or unfold the upstairs bunk, loved by kids, and extra travel companions.

Everyone loves the cute kitchen has the original stove (works great!) and sink. Fridge has been removed to make room for extra storage.

Bought in 2020 (yes we were those people) with 217K. Previous owner owned since '88.
(Lived her whole life in NM and CO, read no rust, one small paint chipping spot on passenger door).

She has been regularly maintained and cherished, and is in excellent condition for her age.
Heres a list of some of the most recent updates:
* 2.2 liter new engine at 173K.
* Clutch 203K
* Fuel tank
* Stainless steel coolant lines
* Starter
* Clutch Cylinder
* Heating system repaired
* Fuel line replaced
* Brake hose replaced
* Ignition switch
* Power steering hoses
* Rear CV boots
* Custom Rocky Mtn Westy in-bumper hitch
* 16 rims

Receipts for the life of the vehicle are available.

Own a Piece of History: Whether you're a collector or a first-time Vanagon enthusiast, this 1986 model is a gem waiting for her next owner. Imagine the stories she could tell, and the memories you will create.

Mechanical

Runs great, but has an intermittent starting issue. Might be electrical. We have had the starter and the ignition switch replaced. We sometimes have to push start. Also, the steering column was worked on not put back together in a great way, turn signals stay on and have to be manually turned off.

Exterior

Great condition. One small paint chipping area at the passenger side door.

Interior

Interior condition is actually perfect. Very well perserved.
