hi...
no, I wasn't fishing to get MY for say $ 1,500 !
glad you made it out to those lakes, sure is beautiful vanagon country all
right.
I hope you've gone out to McKenzie Pass too , while it's summer.
yes, I'd sell a body piece off a vanagon. Have at least two very, very
non-rusted 85's for parts like that ,and an 84 or two also.
rear bumpers ..
I consider a really non-dented original chrome rear bumper to be a pretty
rare thing ..
and I have rear bumpers from 'straigtenable' to 'very nice.'
fwiw..
I showed a slightly dented one to a lcoal chrome shop that does that sort
of thing .,. straighten and re-chrome bumpers ....though the price was on
the obscene side. a bit ..around $ 400.
rear hatch ...sure ....got a really good one on an 85 .
I'll pmail you on that.
it is clearly recongized that the car is at fault in all this ?
and that person is insured ?
