...which means you need to avoid it. To begin with, the 2000cc Type IV
is already bored and stroked out to within an inch of its life, by
Volkswagenwerk AG. I live in a valley, which means that alot of
(incredibly naive) local VW owners love to bore/stroke their engines
out to give a little more power to pull the hills. This works
wonderfully for about three weeks. After which...

Not very well, due to the stuff in the back. Too many closets. I'd go
for a window van; I almost bought an '81 from a guy who used to haul
all kinds of lumber in it. You can sleep in those, too, if you get
creative.

I'd pass on that one.

Best regards,
Sam
