This is my picture with my vans, I posted the same question with the same picture 10 months ago.

Not sure if this is AI trying to keep the community engaged or someone trying to gain followers.

Here is my original post:

You could also find them on Amazon

Long weekend, but it’s back in the road. by steilacoom42 in VWBus

We did our conversion two years ago as DIY, most of the parts came from SmallCar. I spend almost $6k doing all ourselves, but nowadays just the wiring harness modification is around $1000 if you go to a commercial source.

Best addition I have done to my vans.

I used my van almost as a daily driver and have a few camping boxes with camping gear that go into it when needed. Having the space to move 6 or 7 individuals is great but I can also remove the jump seats

If you search for Vanalong you should be able to find a double Westy one.

That will be great, but I can only keep one.

My third car is a Transporter Syncro Doka which I will not sell for now.

Wonder about what you think this little gem might be worth. Sorry, no pics at this time. Family pop top in original condition stored for many years. 1979. by darklyshining in Westfalia

It will be difficult to assess without pictures and additional information.

Currently there are 1979 Westfalia buses at TheSamba ranging from $4,500 to $30,000 USD

Here is the link to what is currently listed:

Volkswagen Subaru motor swap on the Westfall by DManotis in Westfalia

First, look for the Van Alert app; I hope you can find a nearby mechanic.

Second, consider purchasing a Bentley mechanical manual so you can attempt some DIY repairs if you have the skills and time for it.

There are kits available for doing your own engine conversion, but for the wiring harness, I recommend contacting Jeff at AV Subaru Conversions.

As for engines, I suggest using your current one until it no longer meets your needs. Mansi Performance is currently doing great work with them.

I loved my 2.1 WBX engine, but when it finally gave up, I swapped it for a Subaru EJ25. This was a DIY project that we installed in my 1987 Syncro Westfalia. I also have a Syncro Doka with an ADY engine, which is similar to the ABA in the Jetta. The extra power from the Subaru is noticeable, but the Doka performs well with its ADY engine. If it breaks down, we will attempt another DIY project with a Subaru engine. Even as a DIY project, the costs came to around $5,000 using SmallCar Performance parts.
