i see from your other posts that you are looking for auto transmission.
be advised that the auto transmission in the vanagon is the same as the
ones in the golf - jetta.  although the final drive portions are different
you can find more information in the archives about this.  using one of
these transmissions will bring your cost down and your availability up.  as
for wreckers in michigan try these links out for size.

these are the local guys that i deal with the most.  they are fair but
don't expect to find a ton of vanagons there.  they had one or two last
time i was there about a year ago.
