I bought an '82 diesel vanagon today... ulp. I had planned on looking at it as a pile of miscellaneous parts, including the magical engine-swap parts, but having seen the van , I'm having a tough time with that idea. It's in good shape, no, it's in excellent shape, and no rust. I dunno if I can bring myself to strip it. May have to look into rebuilding the diesel. Sigh... If I don't watch out, I'm gonna start using a fancy signature with my vw count in it. Gary Shea '81 Westy '82 Diesel (semi-dead) |
