Comments: To: SyncrogalVW@AOL.COM

<snip> a good friend is looking to purchase a vanagon for use in Hawaii <snip>

Sorry, I don't have any specific info, but, I lived in Hawaii for a total of 35 years before moving to Maine in 1999 and I can tell you that Vanagons are plentiful there.

Due to the cost of shipping from California, and the availibility of Vanagons in Hawaii, I'd recommend your friend look to purchasing there. Even if it were to be purchased on Oahu, the cost of shipping from there to the Big Island is not that great.

One thing to be careful of, though, is the possibility of rust. If an automobile isn't washed frequently and/or if it was parked or used very near the ocean, rust can be a concern.
