Should We Crush The Rarest Vanagon?- Tristar Syncro Doka Rescue 

Atleast the visco is doing its job:)

very cool. 2.1DJ is the best vw engine, it’s in my van. I had coolant leaks so took everything off the engine, put new heads on, resprayed all the rusty engine bits, new stainless coolant pipes, new stainless exhaust, new fuel lines, now it runs great. oh and we call it a T25 here :D Good luck with this van guys!

Great find…she needs some love…the only kinda difficult metal problem is the roof….

After my 1st Vanagon (1985 Westy) caught fire (bad fuel line?) and burned totally up. Then my 2nd Vanagon (owned for 16 years and did every mechanical repair possible except the A/C (don't need A.C in San Francisco) and the heater -which still worked fine. It was stolen a month ago. Still not recovered. I am shopping for my 3rd Vanagon- found a nice Wolfsburg in WA- will fly up and drive back to S,F. Bay area.---if my insurance company quits stalling on the settlement so I could buy it. Love the guys- Love their Vanagon passion. Definitely a cult vehicle-I can't shake. ely .

As I said before, Dan is married to a good woman who has let him purchase another classic VW. Looks like Dan will be putting in a lot of time getting that back on the road. I learned a bit from watching this video, i.e., how to open beer bottles, among other things.

Love the T25 Crew Cab. All the best from Jersey, the other Channel Island😊

Now that is rare

Lol. Awesome. Sweet ride. Needs some work but so does mine. Hope some of the parts shortages clear up soon....thank you for the content always a pleasant surprise. When you doing an update on the blue bomber...it runs and drives?!!!

Nice work guys. Would you mind posting a link for the license plate LEDs?

Did not know that RHD synchro dokas were imported to Canada, especially the splitted middle windows are damn rare. Rust is a big problem, the best is to drive this car in summer only.

Super cool! Where on earth would you get a south african grille? He mentioned it so casually 🤣

Awsome

ship that T3 Tristar to UK if you don't really really really want it. coz I really really really do want it

The Stussy sticker, LOL

Watched it again today. Why does it seem to have a "sub-floor" under the pick-up deck, as I was viewing the engine compartment?

I just found this video. What's the status of the Doka?

you might be able to fine a 1990 1991 base model seat for the seat bottom fabric for the drivers side.

...no more engine rebuild, NO distributor, NO reciprocating push rod n housing pipes- swap/transplant with a Suby engine+tranny and U will b happy. These buses go for Gold. VW was short sighted to discontinue production of this vehicle. I communicated with the VW engineering division-back then- to use a 3 ltr engine with an auto tranny for the US Market, n they told me that they cater to the demand of the world Market! thus, NO more Vanagons!

what is the going price these days for one of these RHD Tristars?

I want it

"......he's going for SPEED!"

Uk modell

What happened to this? Would Dan sell it?

Sell this to me 😂 I’m in the uk so rhd isn’t an issue here

I would say hope you did not Crush it , because it is rare " Rare" means " rare you will never find another one !! Once you Crush it , it is Gone for everrr !!!!

😅 a long way back to road…

Really enjoyed this. You guys might find this useful, in terms of the cab area. Some inspiration! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IaqM8zUl04o.html
