Subject:Newbie considering purchase of 88 "Transporter"
From:Allan Streib

Hi folks,

I do not own a vanagon, joined the list for research purposes.

Stumbled across this on autotrader.com, it is a Vanagon "Transporter"
which is just quirky enough to grab my interest.  The seating and
configuration in this one would be ideal for my needs.

Price seems insane, I guess owing to the scarcity of this particular
configuration, but still... what did they sell for new?  Could not
have been a lot more than that.

I've been advised it's a money pit due to the engine and the exhaust.
I've never owned a Vanagon before; I did own a '91 Jetta which I
bought new and it was very trouble-free for the nearly 190,000 miles I
owned it.
