I have a 2.1 wasserboxer with a broken head stud taking up space and it
needs to go. It's dirty, but it ran perfectly adequately until the coolant
blew out the stud hole onto the highway. I was over to the shoulder and had
the engine off within seconds of hearing the stud blow, so there's no
overheat damage. All the useful exterior parts were put on the Boston Engine
rebuilt that replaced it. Basically it'd make a decent core for exchange.
Offered for the low, low price of FREE, to whomever is willing to come and
get it in Simi Valley, CA.

And on an unrelated, but still Vanagon relevant note, the following was seen
in an eBay ad for a 90 Westy in snowy Idaho:
"There is a little paint bubbling along the lower left body seam. This is
quite typical and not a problem."
Relax, dear; those holes are all part of the natural cycle of Vanagon
life...
