1990 T3 Vanagon Transporter Microbus Carat Wolfsburg Edition

Vehicle Description

Wonderful 1990 Volkswagen Vanagon Carat Wolfsburg Edition. Enhanced suspension and rare manual transmission for this year. Van hasvery clean, original Weekenderinterior, with folding table, jump seat that makes a comfy bedand two rear facing captain's chairs. Smells good. Super fun van that's ready for adventure! Passed CA smog on 5/30/17.

Wasserboxer engine/ head gasketsprofessionally rebuilt (donor engine from my previous 1990 GL Vanagon)by Cory Motors in Santa Barbara, CA in 2013. Good power, takes hills well and loves to be driven.Recent tune-up, oil change and new alternator. 4 new tires. Toronado Red paint is sadly fading (see pictures)and you will likely want to have a new coat in the not too distant future. Two rust spots on roof, please see pictures. No larger than a quarter in size.

The passengerpower window is functioning at this time. The driver's side powerwindow regulator will need to be replaced. The regulator is readily available part (around $85 on eBay), power window motor is strong. This would be my next project on the van. Also the belt in the tape deck is worn out and needsto be changed. AM/FM tuner works great, speakers loud and clear. We've used a cassette to headphone output converter for ipod play for years and it works perfectly. Air Conditioning needs a recharge. Rear hatch hydraulics are strong, with no leak and hatch opens fully as engineered, no need to prop open.

Reasonable offers considered- especially for local interest. Please, no low ballers or tire kickers. This is a clean, well maintained, much-loved van and we'd like to see it go to the right owner who will continue to give it the TLC that Volkswagens need- but we're in no rush to sell.
