Todd:
I believe Chris Turner (mailto:JordanVw@aol.com) has recently advertised an
air-cooled tranny.

If you can't find a used 1.6 TD, you might try Jack at VW Diesel Parts
(http://www.vwdieselparts.com/).  He has a good reputation and knows his VW
diesels.  His web site has lots of information and prices.
