Re: EBay Finds
That vendor is a regular eBay dealer "flipper" (as much as I hate that term). Personally I believe a lot of the bids are fake to generate interest and genuine bids. That and these types seem to attract a following of monied old fools who buy any of their old shit. Nice work if you can get it, but I have never and will never buy a car from a dealer.

19k for the triumph? Good god that's a house deposit plus a new car.
As I suspected I was right about everything.

Re: EBay Finds
I must be getting old as I've started looking at these and finding them appealing.

many get stripped or not looked after this is the most complete vw i have come across
I don't think there is a single panel that isn't rusty. Even the interior looks rusty.externally the van looks worse than it is it is

Re: EBay Finds
I've seen worse go in the body shop that did mine.....It's probably way better to start here than some fillered-up patchwork quilt.

I bet loading that on and off was fun. If it could talk, you would be hearing it screaming to turn off the life support machine.
