Yes that is true, but. If haggled, than that price would have been lower easily. My co-worker picked up a 1972 Volkswagen Van, all original for $3,500.00. Body is straight, engine needs a rebuild, no surface rust, no rust in general except for on the bumpers. Which were just coated in house paint, he will be re-doing the bumpers.

Interior is in great condition, but sitting under a tree with a window open has caused some molding in the interior, but it is all there. Pop-top, fridge, stove, etc. It is the Vanagon model.

All original with no rust for $3,500.00 guy was wanting $12,000.00 for it. Sure they hold their value, but with the proper haggling. It'll go right down.

Need proof of this vehicle I have no problem getting a picture for you guys. Tell me to put something in the picture(please. Something reason-able. Not a ham or anything, but like a Sign or something on those terms.)
