That message doesn't seem to mention that the van doesn't have an engine or transaxle, nor does it say it doesn't run - just that it's for sale. That's why dummies like me e-mailed him to ask about it. He also advertised his Carat the same day. Oh, and "vikingtime04" is no longer a valid e-Bay seller. I imagine e-Bay has pulled his ID. How strange! ;-) > "OK, I'll leave it at that since I've already gone on > for far too long about something I don't know a whole > lot about ..." > > Jeffrey Earl > 1983 diesel Westfalia "Vanasazi" I for one am putting this issue to bed. I guess we have really done what he hoped we would do - disrupt this list and give him his 15 minutes of fame. <looks at watch> Well, the fifteen minutes are up... Some Vanagon content - looking at a 1990 Weekender today, but it sounds like it needs a rebuild. My guess is based on the fact that the owner says it steams once it gets hot! Bummed...
