1991 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia GL Camper

1991 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia GL Camper with 264,000 miles, meticulously maintained and extensively upgraded for optimal performance, comfort, and style. A true classic, this Vanagon features a rebuilt automatic transmission, ensuring smooth operation on long journeys, while the power windows and newly upgraded power door locks add convenience. One of the most significant upgrades is the Subaru 2.2 Kennedy engine conversion, offering a more powerful and reliable performance than the original engine. Additionally, it includes a generator from a Subaru 2.5, providing off-grid power. With a newly replaced radiator, stainless steel cooling tubes, and a resealed gas tank, the cooling and fuel systems have been enhanced to keep the van running efficiently for many more miles.

The Vanagon rides on a fresh set of five 16” rims and tires (including a spare) for a smooth, reliable ride, along with a South African grill featuring distinctive round headlights that enhance both aesthetics and visibility. The exterior has been toughened with heavy-duty Go Westy front and rear bumpers, plus a Go Westy spare tire hanger for practical storage. Safety and appearance upgrades continue with LED side marker lights and grey front and rear lenses, adding a sleek, modern touch. This Vanagon has also been fitted with a Go Westy windshield privacy screen, offering enhanced privacy during campouts or road trips.

The suspension and handling have been carefully upgraded to improve ride quality and control. With four new Bilstein shocks, four new springs, and a heavy-duty front sway bar, this Vanagon is prepared for any terrain. Steering has been improved with custom brackets from the frame to the steering rack, providing added stability, while the braking system has been significantly enhanced with a Go Westy rear big brake disc conversion. The interior offers an upgraded experience as well, featuring custom cabinets by Rhino Design, including a unique wardrobe door conversion that doubles as a spice rack. The trucker fridge, housed in one of these custom cabinets, is a functional highlight—it even makes ice.

This Vanagon is well-equipped for off-grid living, with two 100-watt solar panels powering a 100 amp hour Renogy lithium battery, an EPever solar controller, and a 1500-watt DC converter, making it perfect for extended trips without sacrificing modern amenities. Custom solar panel brackets have been added to ensure durability. Inside, LED lighting has been installed in two zones for efficient, ambient lighting, and waterproof laminate flooring has been added over the original floor for easy maintenance. New rubber seals around the doors and felt sweeps around the windows ensure a weatherproof and insulated interior. Recent maintenance includes replacing all rubber bushings, adding new poly bushings to the front-end steering components, and replacing the bearings on the motor's top end.

With 25,000 miles put on this Vanagon since the conversion, it has proven itself on trips across the Northwest, Canada, Arizona, and southern California, performing flawlessly without ever needing to be towed. The owner has meticulously kept all parts receipts and personally handled much of the work, with the exception of the solar installation. The Vanagon is scheduled for a final trip to the shop for seal replacements on the AC compressor. With an asking price of $47,500 this well-maintained, extensively upgraded Vanagon is ready for its next adventure.
