Sounds like someone should search out the Subaru List and see what their
gripes are about their engines and transmissions.
I'm still driving a really nice 83 Aircooled but I keep seeing these
great looking Waserboxers waiting to be crushed because of dead engines.
Stands to reason you could make a salvage yard a package offer to get
everything you need to put a Waserboxer back on the road with a Subaru
engine and come out cheaper than the VW rebuild route.
