A BEAUTIFUL ANTIQUE/VINTAGE 1986 VOLKSWAGON VANAGON 2.1L 4-SPEED MANUAL RIVERIA FULL CAMPER. . . THIS CAMPER IS ALL ORIGINAL & IS A TRUE CALIFORNIA VAN WITH NO BODY RUST. . . THIS IS A SOLID AS ONE SEARCHING FOR A VANAGON FROM THE 80’s COULD ASK FOR. . . THIS VAN CAME ACROSS THE COUNTRY & ENDED IT’S VOYAGE HERE IN NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND. . . YOU CAN SEE THE ORIGINAL CALIFORNIA LICENSE PLATES IN THE PHOTO WITH ALL THE ADDITIONAL PARTS & ACCESSORIES INCLUDED WITH THIS CAMPER VAN (see pics). . . THE VAN IS MARINE BLUE & HAS THE MORE RARE RIVERIA POP TOP (see pics). . . THE VAN HAS BRAND NEW TIRES ALL THE WAY AROUND WITH REINFORCED INTERIOR (correct tires). . . THE VAN HAS HAD A RECENT OIL & FILTER CHANGE/FULL SERVICE AS WELL AS A TUNE UP WITH SOME ADDITIONAL PLUGS & WIRES, GO WESTY HIGH PRESSURE OIL PUMP, BRAND NEW MUFFLER & TAIL PIECE, & A RECENT HELICOIL FOR THE DRAIN PLUG, NEW SOUND SYSTEM, & ALSO COMES WITH ALL THE PARTS & ACCESSORIES IN THE PHOTOS (see pics). . . THIS VAN WAS PURCHASED BY MYSELF FROM A FRIEND WHO SOLD THERE HOUSE HERE ON THE ISLAND & HAD WITH ME THE GOOD INTENTIONS OF A FULL RESTORATION. . ALSO INCLUDED WITH THE PARTS & ACCESSORIES ARE CHROME WINDOW TRIM w/INSTALLING TOOL, RIVERIA POP TOP GASKET, & MUCH MORE (see pics). . . ALSO INCLUDED ARE FUSES, BELTS, BUG SCREEN, REPAIR MANUAL BOOK, & VANAGON COVER (see pics). . . THERE ARE MANY, MANY EXTRAS INCLUDED (please see pics). . . THE (4) NEW TIRES HAVE LESS THAN 40 MILES ON THEM (see pics). . . THE VANAGON RUNS NICE AROUND TOWN, BUT STILL HAS SOME WAYS TO GO TO GET TO THE FINSIH LINE FOR A FULL RESTORATION. . THERE ARE THE TYPICAL DINGS, PAINT CHIPS, & SMALL DENTS, BUT THIS IS ORIGINAL. . . THERE HAS BEEN AN AMATURE PAINT JOB TO THE SLIDING DOOR (more in the primer phase, see pics). . . THERE IS A SMALL VENT WINDOW ON THE SLIDING DOOR WHICH WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. . . A NEW SUSPENSION WITH SHOCKS WILL BE NEEDED AS IT IS THAT TIME & IS A BIT FLOATY. . . THE OIL PRESSURE IS STILL A BIT LOW WHEN IN IDLE AND WILL NEED A BOOSTER KIT (anything above 2500rpm light goes off), KIT COSTS LESS THAN $20, BUT DOES REQUIRE PROFESSIONAL INSTALL AND MORE $$$. . . THE RIVERIA POP TOP IS IN NICE CONDITION, BUT DOES HAVE A SMALL CRACK ON THE INSIDE WHICH YOU CAN SEE IN ONE OF THE PHOTOS (see pics). . . THE INTERIOR IS ALL ORIGINAL & IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION IN MY OPINION (see pics). . HAS BRAND NEW CD/RADIO WITH BLUETOOTH AND NEW SOUND SYSTEM SOUNDING GREAT. . . THE REFRIGERATOR/COOLER WAS UPGRADED AT SOME POINT AND IT IS A BIT LARGER AND THIS IS WHY THE COMPARTMENT IS A BIT DIFFERENT (see pics). . . I HAVE NOT ATTEMPTED TO TRY OVEN, SINK, OR REFRIGERATOR & CAN NOT TELL YOU ONE WAY OR ANOTHER IF EVERYTHING IS WORKING PROPERLY. . I ASSUMED THAT WAS THE NEXT PHASE AFTER EVERYTHING MECHANICAL WAS SOUND FIRST, BUT LOOKS LIKE THIS WILL BE THE NEXT OWNERS PROJECT AS MY TIME IS UP. . . AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURES THIS VANAGON HAS ALSO RECENTLY PASSED RHODE ISLAND INSPECTION & IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PASSING RI INSPECTION IT’S NOT JUST GIVEN TO YOU! THIS IS A SOLID VANAGON WITH NO RUST ISSUES & IT WOULD NOT SURPRISE ME IF THIS VANAGON MAKES IT’S WAY BACK TO CALIFORNIA. . . AS MUCH AS I WAS ENJOYING THE PROJECT AND LOOKING FORWARD TO THE DAY THIS WAS 100% RESTORED I SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE THE TIME, PATIENCE, or STORAGE FOR THIS ANY LONGER. . . I UNFORTUNATELY CAN NOT DO MUCH OF THE WORK MYSELF & REALLY WAS NOT FULLY PREPARED FOR THE TASK, BUT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUY IT, SO I SIMPLY COULD NOT SAY NO. . THIS REALLY IS A CASE OF MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN. . . I HAVE BEEN SELLING ON EBAY FOR OVER 20 YEARS & THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE I WILL BE ATTEMPTING TO SELL, SO PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY & ALL QUESTIONS or CONCERNS YOU MAY HAVE. . . I HAD ALREADY TAKEN ALL THE PICTURES OUT ON THE BEAUTIFUL OCEAN DRIVE IN NEWPORT, RI & DID NOT REALIZE UNTIL LISTING IT THAT I COULD HAD TAKEN MORE PICTURES, SO IF YOU NEED ANY MORE THAN WHAT YOU SEE I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET YOU WHAT YOU REQUEST. . . I THOUGHT ABOUT SELLING THIS LOCALLY, BUT THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE THE PROPER FAREWELL HERE ON EBAY. . . I CAN NOT THINK OF A BETTER PLACE TO HAVE THE MOST EYES ON IT & GIVE IT THE BEST CHANCE AT A NEW GREAT HOME. . . THIS IS FUN VEHICLE AND HAS THE RIGHT COLOR! IT NEEDS SOME TLC, BUT UNLESS IT’S ALREADY 100% RESTORED WHAT VEHICLE DOESN’T? I AM GOING TO START THIS VANAGON AT THE MOST REASONABLE STARTING BID POSSIBLE WHITHOUT COMPLETELY SHOOTING MYSELF IN THE FOOT & LET THE BIDDING HAPPEN. . THE PRICES FLUCTUATE SO MUCH ON THESE IT ONLY SEEMS APPROPRIATE. . . THIS 1986 VANAGON IS A 4-SPEED MANUAL 2.1L WITH 159,163 ORIGINAL MILES!
