so theres 8 questions there , can i have 8 answers please ,then we can proceed accordingly.
regards mm
bloody hell mm you don't want much lol
I am new to all this,right i will try and answer your questions in order
1 I can't do a link sorry I hope you understand,all it says in advert is reg 4/1990 1.6 td starts and brakes good,the advert was posted with 5 pictures,4 of which you have now
2 the seller has sent me around 25 additional pictures both of the outside,inside and underneath,it does look like it needs one bit of welding on the rear right side where the floor meets the arch,if I posted all the pictures I would be here for hours,but i will try and post them bit by bit,I think the next one would be the welding photo
3 its costing me at todays exchange rate £2492.00 thats the full asking price, I have not asked for anything off yet although he said if I find anything we can negotiate on the price
4 not in the uk
5 seller not sure why parts/seats etc have been altered as he bought it like that, and I have only just learned whats right and wrong about it to tell him if you understand
hth nick
oh and the seller has never mentioned a night heater or the lpg tank,i can see the lpg tank and what looks like the heater exhaust sticking out the side just passed the lpg tank,so I don't think the seller knows much at all,even less than me and i know next to nothing

Sounds like your buying it blind from abroad? Nothing wrong with that, but 2.5k seems nice and cheap to lure in potential buyers/victims....
As for the rear coolant heater, it would fill that big square cut out beneath the rear seat.
I wouldn't get too hung up on little details, mine is a top of the range model from '90 and came without a rev counter
Going by the pics, most seams have had rust painted over. Depends what you want really? You could spend 1k to get it roadworthy and drive as is, or spend 6k+ on it to get it all lurvley.

cheap, real cheap in fairness
the bed dont look at all like a westy one, lokks like summat thats been dropped in.....
for that money if drives ok then its a steal
please get some gutter shots though. these hitops rot out under the hitop letting water ib, a blistered wavey gutter will show possible issues.

a proper bed will be a second hand find.
regardless of the works the van is still a steal at that money.
bed 300
bumpers 150 ea
plus bodywork.
they look sweet with sideplanks and big mirrors and a dab of lowering
whatever you spend its still a cheap van.
t3 westys are great campers, i should know, i loved our old one, tis the only van i regret ever selling.
heres my old one,
