Don, a fellow traveler I met in Mexico, needs a new
or rebuilt engine for his 1981 Westy.  Don lives in BC,
right on the border of the Alaska panhandle, & has no
computer or email facilities.  He's a very cool guy who,
besides driving alone all the way to Mexico in his '81 Westy,
owns, & single handed, operates a little sawmill with 50 year
old equipment!

I promised I'd consult the list for advice re what he might
do about rebuilding/replacing his engine.  Boston Bob seems to
be the hands down favorite with this list.  I have copied various
posts for him re beating Customs at their duty game & made note
of various shipping options.

Since Don's got no email/computer, anybody have an address
or phone # for Boston Bob?
Any other pertinent suggestions re his engine project gratefully
accepted, thanks.
Cheers,
Phaedra
