Classic VW Beetles and Campervans

Hi, I have been offered an old campervan but it needs work on it, because of that I can’t park on road yet and was hoping someone can help? I need a off road space for about 1month.

I am also looking for someone to share ownwership. upto 3 of us so u would get to use the van 4-6mths a year.

I am also wanting to know if it’s worth repairing the van as it’s 32 years old!

I have family/friend who can fix it, and has said to replace engine with a recon one. Although the engine is about 10 yrs old and not the original. it’s leaking petrol or oil and someone did a bad repair I am told.

Advice, suggestions most welcome.
