Classic Car Overview

Welcome to our 1988 Volkswagen Vanagon GL Camper Westfalia.
115,014 miles - Sold As Is $40,000 OBO

Our Vanagons name is Meep (Its the sound the horn makes) and she is an all original gem of a find. Every part that has ever been replaced has been all original OEM parts mostly supplied by GoWesty. In the 10 years weve had her she has only been driven 10k miles and was garage kept by previous owners for 25 years before us. Meep has had 100 point inspections done by both SouthWesties and Kotters VW over our years and not a single issue was found. Both inspections came back absolutely clean without anything in need of repair. The fact that this is an all original vehicle with only 115k miles on its wasserboxer engine makes it an amazing find compared to any other Vanagon. We have always considered Meep to still be a baby and should easily get another 100,000 miles without any issues.

As a Westfalia Meep is a full camper that sleeps 4 people. 2 in the pop-top camper above and 2 on the fold down rear bench seat below. It is equipped with a 2 burner stove with external LP Gas Tank, sink with 13.2 gallon water tank, refrigerator, closet, 2 shelved cabinets as well 5 additional storage compartments. The pop-top has a screened window and also a small sunroof vent. We have added an auxiliary battery system with solar panel, so you should never run out of power while out on any adventure.

Meep has been a constant joy in our family as the family camper, but has mostly been used as our day at the beach vehicle. Our Kids have grown up camping all over SoCal and living a mile from the beach, weve taken every opportunity to load up our van for a fun day at the beach whenever possible. Unfortunately now our kids have grown up so we no longer all fit in the camper, so the time has come to pass on our amazing van to the next family or owner. We are of course super sad to see her go, but its time for her next generation of memories.

We have kept and will include hard copies of all service records and purchases from our 10 years. We have attached the CarFax report to our listing and also a Vin Check report so you can see there are zero issues with this vehicle. You will also notice we have priced this lower than other listings of similar year and condition, as we assume its next owner will want to refresh the paint. Meep has a few rust spots and could use some fresh paint while preserving her distinctive stripes.
Weve added an extensive list of additions or accessories to Meep:
5 Yokohama Y356 Super Van Tires - Spare included (9/24)
Oil change and filter replacement (8/23)
Original 1980s Trans-Awn 2000 Awning with paperwork and brackets
Yakima Wide Body Roof Racks
Original Large Built In Table
Auxiliary Battery System
100 Amp Weize LiFePO4 Lithium Battery
100 Watt Renogy Premium Solar Panel
1000 Watt West Marine Power Inverter
Noco Genius 5x2 2-bank 10A Smart battery charger, maintainer & desulfator
50A Safety Circuit Breaker Resettable Fuse
Additional Fuse Panel for Aux bat sys
New VW Keys Cut
New Antenna for radio
Headrests added to rear bench seat for children safety
3-point rear seatbelts for children safety
Fridge Check Valve Update Kit
Litter Bag
Rear Stone Guard Decals
Eye Bolt Kit for cargo tie downs
Flue Vent Cover
Foldable Cup Holders
Over-the-sink Cutting Board
Nonstick Griddle
Table Cloth Clamps
Camp Stove Toaster
Extra Jump Seat for potential install

Thank you for taking the time to look at our amazing Westfalia Vanagon and please contact us with any questions. We sincerely hope and will do our best to make sure Meep goes to the right owner. A vehicle this original and in this great of shape we believe shouldnt be torn apart or replaced with a different engine. GoWesty can service the original engine from a 2100cc with options going up to 2700cc, so if the day ever comes that engine work is needed hopefully this Vanagon Westfalia Camper will stay all original.
