Subject:      Any extra automatic transmissions?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


A week or so ago, someone was looking for an automatic transmission for their
Vanagon.  I didn't pay much attention since all mine are manuals.  However, I
came upon an '87 Westy today that is in great physical condition with the
exception of a problem with the automatic transmission (the differential is
making noise). It has only 96k miles and has been owned since new by an older
couple. (at 72-she and 80-he they don't want to go camping anymore.  That
means I have another 25 years!)


Any chance that the supply of automatics out there exceeded the demand?


The price on this vehicle is very reasonable if a transmission could be had
inexpensively.
