I will certainly save the "little yellow engine that could". I may keep it as a back up if I get a van with a tired engine or I'll make sure that he finds a nice home. As for my Westy stuff, most of it was broken up in the crash. Even the pop top doesn't want to close. I know some folks never use their Westy fridge, stove and sink, but we use it a lot. I often cook out on my lunch break at work. We like to camp a lot too. So I am looking for a Westy. When my Caravan quits I may be in the market for a 2WD passenger van for my DW.

SAVE THE ENGINE!!!! : ) For those who don't know, The "little yellow engine that could" that i extensively worked on doin a partial rebuild when i was 18 yrs old with the help of this very list is what brought life into Steve's van. Hopefully it can live on in another.... : ) Does it have to be a westfalia? There are some really great options for 2wd passanger vans these days, very rust free and in nice shape. -Craig Cowan '85 GL turned WESTY BOSTIG in the back
