It was like a 75HP 2.5L or somthing.. 3 of them drove across Canada and back through the states some how loaded with shit. I couldn’t believe they even made it up the coquihalla. My old truck 4.6L V8 felt like it was ready to blow every time I took it up with anything in the back lol
I saw a few around my area. I thought it was pretty cool. I thought about buying one for road/ camping trips. Boy was I shocked at what a 1980s+ VW Vanagon Westfalia cost. They must have a cult following or something lol. Cheapest one I saw with minor rust and okay condition was like $20,000. The newer 2001+ Vanagons are cheaper but not made by Westfalia.
