I am on Transporter Werks' mailing list because they did the initial work to get my 85 Westy AT road worthy. They are apparently getting ready to clear their yard. In their newsletter about this they included two pictures of the stuff they have and asked that any contact about salvage parts or cars be made by email. In my dealings with Sean I felt that he was honest and did good work and I wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again. I was very much a vanagon novice at that time though and it's hard to say whether I can give a good evaluation in that regard--I just know that everything he worked on, worked, and he was up front about what it would cost and if he discovered something mid stream he told me about it before going further, etc. Anyway--here are two shots they included of their yard, I am guessing they are getting rid of all of it but they don't say that explicitly. http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs016/1109175964123/img/15.jpg http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs016/1109175964123/img/13.jpg Here is the text from the newsletter: Huge Salvage Sale > > Saturday, March 24th from 9am--4pm > > Come and buy full vehicles or miscellaneous new and used parts.
