Sale Details

Description:

This is Tom and Carson of California. They came down from the SF Bay Area and spent a couple of hours penciling out their dream machine. They could not have picked a better Westy to start with.

This is EXACTLY the Westy for which we search HI and LOW. Nice, clean, rust free, mostly original paint, totally unmolested 1990 Westy in Flash Silver. The clear coat on the paint has "spider webbed", which is typical for Flash Silver. The paint is still functional in that it is keeping the body rust free. But this Westy is worthy of a proper and thorough exterior restoration, which is included in the price.

It still has UNDER 100,000 miles, which means it STILL qualifies for a very comprehensive and long term AUL warranty, which is also included in the price. And, that is a good thing, because this Westy has EVERY factory option--except AT (this one is a manual)--all covered by AUL.

We paid $8,000 for this one, plus $400 to ship it here from Southern California, where it has lived  most of its life. That was very, very fair. We are marking that up 20%, so they got the  vehicle itself starts for $9,600 plus tax and license. I challenge ANYONE to f ind a Westy THIS NICE, ANYWHERE for under $15k. You know what: You won't! I have seen Westy's come by for which folks have paid $18k that were not as nice as this one. I have seen that more times than I care to remember, in fact...
