Hi all from Atlanta,

Just another message about my 83.5 Westy I have for sale.

It can be seen at traderonline.com using the following link by copying and
pasting:

certified=n&max_price=&start_year=1983&end_year=1983&address=30012&
search_type=used&make=VOLKS&model=VANAG&min_price=&distance=25&advcd_on=n&
advanced=n&color=&car_year=1983&ac_afflt=ATLANTACLASSIFIEDS.COM

I have had some good times camping in my Westy but I just don't enjoy the
trips like I used to when I lived in San Diego in the early 90's.  I miss the
desert and ocean and find I don't have the time right now for camping trips
beyond the Southeast so I decided to let someone else enjoy it.

I realize most interested parties are out West and in the Midwest and
Northeast so I am prepared to lower the price to $4000 and split airfare up
to $300 for any buyer who has to fly in.  I can only offer this deal
contingent upon the purchase of the camper so of course some risk is involved
but I will be very forthcoming on the overall condition of my camper over the
phone.

I just solved a problem with the infamous flickering oil pressure light at
idle by flushing the engine with a very effective engine flush by Amsoil and
changing the oil with Mobil 1 15W-50 and an Mahle filter.  The lifters are
nice and quiet also.

This is a terrific example of the earlier Westies and many more miles and
memories are still left for the right individual.

Call me at 770-482-8381 for a live discussion or e-mail me for photos.  I
work a grueling schedule right now but I will follow up on all inquiries.

Regards - Bill
