This 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon GL Westfalia Syncro reportedly was acquired from its original owner 13 years ago by the selling dealer, who operates Rocky Mountain Westy. A water-cooled 2.2-liter flat-four said to have been built by Vanistan sends power to all four wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox fitted with a new clutch, and the truck rides on a lifted suspension to clear Mercedes-Benz–style 15″ wheels mounted with Yokohama Geolandar off-road tires. Refinished in gray, the truck is fitted with a rear-hinged Westfalia pop-up top and canvas tent over a gray cloth interior with a kitchenette and a convertible bed. Modifications include Rocky Mountain Westy bumpers and a spare-tire carrier as well as Schwenk springs with Old Man Emu shocks. This Westfalia Syncro is offered by the selling dealer with a clean Carfax report and a clean Colorado title. The truck is one of approximately 1,500 Snycro campers imported to the US and has been refinished in Wolfram Gray Metallic (LH7V) and is fitted with a rear-hinged pop top. The selling dealer replaced the windshield as well as rubber glass seals throughout. Rocky Mountain Westy Twin Peaks front and rear bumpers are fitted. A full list of modifications and maintenance performed during the selling dealer’s ownership can be seen in the photo gallery below. Sliding glass is featured in the middle windows on both sides of the vehicle. Schwenk Syncro springs as well as front and rear Old Man Emu shocks provide a taller ride height to accommodate Mercedes-Benz–style 15″ alloy wheels shod with Yokohama Geolandar tires, and a matching spare is mounted to a Rocky Mountain Westy swing-out carrier at the rear. Under current ownership, the power-steering system and the steering linkage were refurbished while the front brake rotors and pads as well as the rear drums, shoes, and cylinders were replaced. Front captain’s chairs feature dual armrests and are upholstered in gray fabric. Gray carpets cover the floors, and an aftermarket CD head unit has been installed in the factory location. The six-digit mechanical odometer reads approximately 127k miles, approximately 1k of which have been added by the seller. The core and the control valve for the rear heater are said to have been replaced under current ownership. The rear compartment features white storage cabinets, carpeted flooring, and a bench seat that folds into a bed. A second bed platform is housed in the pop top, and curtains can be drawn across the windows for privacy. Camping equipment includes a kitchenette with a stove, sink, refrigerator, swing-out table, and residential-style power outlet. Underseat locking storage drawers are fitted. The water-cooled 2.2-liter flat-four is said to have been built by Chris Corkins of Vanistan, and work completed under current ownership has included replacement of the engine mounts, thermostat, pressure tank, and fuel pump as well as a tune-up with new spark plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. Modifications include an auxiliary oil cooler with a fan and a stainless-steel exhaust system including tuned performance headers. The selling dealer has also replaced the battery and the starter. A four-speed manual transmission sends power to all four wheels, while work performed under current ownership included refurbishment of the gearbox and shifter linkage as well as the viscous coupling. Additional suspension and steering components replaced by the selling dealer included the front and rear axle CV joints, upper and lower ball joints, polyurethane bushings, and more. The February 2020 Carfax report shows no history of accidents or other issues, and it lists Colorado registration between 1995 and 2016. Filed under: vw
