Subject:      My 1991 Vanagon Carat is getting a new life
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1


Volks,


Well, I'm happy to say that my 1991 Vanagon Carat has been spared any
disassembly.  The Green Car company (www.greencarco.com) in Kirkland
Washington is taking my Vanagon and giving it a Diesel engine that runs on
Bio-Diesel.  The caveat will be that it will run at 65MPH max because of the
automatic tranny.  But, can you imagine the mileage it will get in the
future???  The gas-engine current gets a good 18MPG for the type of driving I
do (a lot of congested highway).


So, I will be signing off of this list as I will be, sadly, Vanagon-less for
the foreseeable future.


Thanks for all the help, assistance, advice, good jokes, ideas and fun times!!
 I hope to see ya'll again!  I would definitely not feel right driving to a
Vanagon meet in my Toyota Corolla :-)


Safe Travels!
