Leon,


Newly-acquired 84 Vanagon has leaking heads and a newly-rebulit
transmission. I have a- "It was working when we removed it because of a
blown transmission" -motor obtained from a NY Listee for $100 about two
years ago. Westy hauled it  2,000 miles in my Coleman Versatrailer. Listee
sent the transmission to be repaired and the repair shop closed, and the
transmission "discopeered." The $500 CA van will be the transplant recipient
of that motor, or the donor, if I ever need one, of a transmission, which
ever opportunity comes first.
