Subject:Query: Any Good Vanagon Salvage Yards LA to Monterey?
From:Frank Grunthaner
Date:Thu, 18 Oct 2001 15:58:00 EDT

On Sunday I will fire up my trusty vehicle and head north to Monterey, CA for
a Micro Total Analytical Systems Conference that runs Sunday evening to
Thursday noon. Driving instead of flying because the time door-to-door should
be a wash, and I wanted to burn-off any significant internal carbon deposits.
I will promenade along either Interstate 5 or along US 101.

Since I will be traveling north on Sunday morning and afternoon, and south on
Thursday afternoon, I was wondering if listees knew of any particularly good
Vanagon -containing salvage yards along the way. I will probably miss my
usual Saturday morning junkyard constitutional in preparation for the
conference. I usually carry enough resources (tools) to strip interesting and
unattended vehicles along the way!

I'm searching for some extra pieces including the Vanagon diesel flywheel, a
couple of used or broken engine mounts and the two engine carrier bars for
the '82 installation.

Thanks

Frank Grunthaner
