Finding a tranny in Vancouver ( I think) is difficult because there are sooooo many vanagons here....yes I know it sounds odd, but people keep them going, so there isn't a supply of parts vehicles... But might be worth trying the Bug Stop in Surrey And yes, from the comments on this list it seems AA in Seattle is the best bet for a rebuild on the continent.... -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Donald Baxter Sent: October 12, 2005 10:44 AM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: 84 Vanagon Transmission NEEDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
