1987 VW Vanagon Westfalia. 2.1L Waterboxer. Water cooled. Fuel
Injection. Wolfsburg Edition. Unfortunately it is time to part ways
with 'Carol', my 87 VW Vanagon. I'm the 3rd owner and have had her
for about two years now. She was my weekend warrior for beach trips
until the beginning of this year where I started to use her as a
daily driver. I am out of Carpinteria and she has taken me on trips
to Huntington Beach and up to Cayucos without issues. Due to a
change in work and my personal life, I will need a different
vehicle which is the reason I am selling her. I got the van in
early Winter of 2022 and it ran very rough. I put in a new (new to
me) 2.1 Waterboxer motor with new seals, valves, valve stems (among
other upgrades listed below). I took it to Peter at The Engine
Company to have my work checked and he made some minor adjustments
and said 'this is the strongest 2.1 I've ever seen'. The odometer
reads around 130,000 miles but, like most of these Vans, it doesn't
work. Oil and filter changed every 5000 miles or 3 to 4 months,
whichever comes first. Passed smog without an issue in Spring 2023.
Original upholstery and curtains. I have a new floor kit that came
with the van that I never installed. New valves, adjuster screws
