Hi I recently purchased an '82 diesel Vanagon. See it at: http://www.mother.com/~jsnyder/vanagon.html It did not come with any owner's manual, etc. Are these available anywhere? I also need a service manual. Are there any specific to the diesel Vanagon or just the entire line? I would prefer not to pay for a bigger manual than I need. I need a new grill. It is broken in a couple spots. Are there any suppliers to recommend? I sent an e-mail to that Vanagon place in PA and tried to find one with no return or luck. I'm also looking for a few Westy parts including a stock bed for sleeping overnight. Are there any good used ones available (reasonable priced) from anyone on this list? I need a new set of hubcaps similar to the ones seen on my Vanagon pics page. Any recommendations? Someone e-mailed me with a plastic oil filler extension tube for my engine but I lost his message. Are you still out there? What engine choices will bolt up to the stock 4-speed transmission? I like the economy of the diesel but we all know this is very underpowered. Many thanks in advance!!
