I just bought a new to me van. I totally love it. It has things I never thought I might have like a radio, and paint ha... and even has electric mirrors.

It also has a very decent VW inline 4 conversion that is going to get swapped out, but I'd like to keep it all together as it would make a good conversion candidate for someone that doesn't want to take any time looking/assembling their own parts.

I plan to sell the whole conversion, label the wiring/cooling lines upon removal, and send it freight to whomever wants it, or you could pick it up. It runs very well, and has been running driving just great since I picked it up. The PO reports he has had no issues to speak of, and it's been very reliable. I am going to keep it in the van running/driving until it is sold so that folks can test drive it before they buy it.

It is located in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Boston MA... so come take it for a spin, it's wicked pissah for $2100, as I'd like to find it a home sooner than later. The transmission goes with it as I have no use for the different bellhousing/starter and am not going to disassemble anything if I don't have to.

please Pmail(off-list) me if you are interested. We are also going to take it to the dyno before it leaves us, so you'll be able to know exactly how much this guy is putting down... not sure of teh current mileage, but it's very clean and well maintained. The only thing it needs is a new muffler.
