Hi Mike,
I actually bought a rolled 94' Subaru at a savage auction so as to do the
vanagon swap.  The subie had only 38k mile on the clock.  I paid a $45 fee
for a one day pass of which $25 could be applied to a purchase.  There was a
free viewing the day before.  There two other guys I was bidding against and
I got it for $700.  With tax, pull out fee, auction fee, and delivery it came
to $900.  One of the other guys came up later and offered me $300 for what
ever I don't use.  It took a day to pull the engine and wire harness (real
pita, must remove dash from car).  I've almost finnished the new harness.
I'm going up to Kenndy' tomorrow to pick up the rest of my parts.  The
auction yard I bought at has a web site and locations all over the country.
Try www.aiia.com.
Cheers,
Kevin Dawson
