Subject:      Cheap Westy in OKC- Should I grab it?
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

I've got a chance to pick up an '81 Westy (non-propane) Vanagon for $600.
It's supposed to be in good condition in and out, canvas is perfect, sink
and fridge are operating, and it's running well. The caveat is that third
and fourth gear are non-op. The owner says that the transmission problems
happened quite suddenly; is it possible that it may be only a linkage issue?
My plan would be to swap the trans and other goodies out of my transporter
into the Westy. Any thoughts as to the viability of this plan? Might I be
biting off more than I could (or should) chew? TIA-


JJ
