After just removing the fuel tank from my syncro westy...(Don't ask me how I
am going to squeeze the silly thing back in....
I realized just how tough some of these projects are for those of you
without a hoist, air tools, welder(s), multiple special tools, large shop
space (with heat),etc...reading how you have to put carpet on the gravel or
create a way to get a pilot bearing out or get a rusted/broken bolt
out....not to mention those of you in the rust belt areas who have to deal
with the corrosion on a regular basis..
 I am just plain spoiled rotten here in the NW. Having been a VW tech for
most of 35 yrs I have collected the goodies to do this stuff and I couldn't
imagine being without any of it...
You guys are better men than I for sure...(as far as working on cars I
mean..) Keep them Vanagons on the road...
