1985 Volkswagen - Vanagon

Product Details

1985 Volkswagen Vanagon GL, finished in Savannah Beige Metallic with a beige interior. This Volkswagen is equipped with the desirable 4-speed manual transmission. This van's factory-fitted 1.9-liter flat-4 engine was replaced by a Subaru-sourced 2.2-liter flat-4. Under CARB Executive Order Number D-428, the Vanagon swap with this engine as performed by Kennedy Engineered Products is CARB compliant; corresponding documentation and an engine bay plaque are pictured in the gallery.The list of modifications further reported by the seller also includes LED headlights, a Rocky Mountain Westy side-mounted ladder, a Fiamma awning, a Smittybilt Rugged Rack roof basket, removable rear-facing second-row jump seats, hardwood flooring, and an Eberspacher Airtronic M2-B4L 12-volt heater.Volkswagen released the Vanagon for the 1980 model year to replace the Transporter, which traced its roots to the original Bus launched in 1950. The van kept its predecessor's rear-mounted engine but it was longer, wider, and characterized by a boxier design. 1983 brought a water-cooled engine, and production for the American market ended in 1991, though Volkswagen continued selling the model in South Africa until 2002.Power comes from a 2.2-liter flat-4, and output is sent to the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual transaxle.
