Looking for the flex plate between the flywheel and torque converter from any year Vanagon or Bus with auto tranny. Seems these puppies are almost extinct new from VW and the price is way outta sight. I have heard that all VW Canada engine rebuilds that were shipped to all location in North America were shipped out with this flex plate regardless of the their destination transmission. I would therefore presume there are a few of these flex plates, new, sitting around in garages or basements around the country. I need the five crank bolts and three torque converter bolts also if possible. This is all for a customers '85 Westy that ripped it's flex plate out on the 401 somewhere between Kingston and Brockville on its way to Nova Scotia Sunday morning. Sitting in my garage now waiting for the flex plate to fall out of the sky ! Any help will be appreciated by myself and Tony Thompson the owner.
