1988 T3 Dehler Profi SyncroThe vehicle: 1988 European Model Volkswagen T3 Dehler Profi Syncro with 3 Knobs - (Original Front and Rear Differentials and a decoupler added aftermarket) 4 speed transmission The 1Z TDI Engine from a 1996 VW Passat has hydrolocked only needs longblock - All other engine components are rebuilt or new and recently tested and working very nicely. It is at Steve's Imports in Portland, OR. Feel free to call and ask questions. They have gone through everything top to bottom. After the owner, John at Steve's Imports took apart everything we decided on a new 1Z longblock. If you want the longblock with 6 month warranty and steve's imports to install then the new installed engine cost would be added to the winning bid - depending on the winning bid. There is a price for the as is condition that I must hit and then a price for the vehicle with newly installed rebuilt 1Z that I must hit. The bid is for as is and then we can discuss things further. Also, Steve Imports just did brake work and electrical work throughout - a lot of rewiring done - over $3000 in brake and electrical and other work just completed. I purchased this vehicle in 2017 for 18000USD knowing that it needed a complete restoration. Over the passed 5 years I have revived this vehicle.This unicorn is an original 2 knob, 15in, VW Dehler Profi Camper. 1 of 8 ever produced. The old Dehler Profi Interior plastic cabinets were cracking and the setup was not that great for camping, in my opinion so after a full body and paint job, I left the interior bare. I purchased a florida reimo kit - which is not currently installed - the kit was $2500 and I have it and it is ready for install. I will include this new kit with the purchase at no additional cost. Since 2017 Full Body and Paint Restoration - 14000USDProfessional Transmission Complete Rebuild with all new gearing and decoupler addition from AA German Transaxles in Duva, WA - 9000USD Mercedes 15in Wheels - 1000USD4 New BF Goodrich KO2 All Terrain Tires - 600USD New Front and Rear Brakes New Wheel Bearing New Stainless Steel Coolant Piping New Diesel Injection Pump (I have a new rebuilt as an extra) New Rebuilt Bosch Starter New Heater Blower Motor New Turbo New Timing and alternator belts All New rubber gaskets for windows and doors - 1000USD New Interior Havelock Insulation - 200USD New Kill Mat Sounddeadening - 200USD New Interior ABS Panels from Werksberg - 500USD New Surf Rack Remanufactured Stainless Steel - 500USD Regular Maintanence 3000-4000 USD /Year over 5 years. A great deal of time and money invested over 5 years to bring this unicorn back to life. This will live on for another 30-40 years without worries. So some things are just not 100% completed but this gives you options. Original Body has 277,700 Miles (body was completely restored in 2020 - stripped down and completely gone through -zero rust More photos upon request |
