Subject: TDI transplant?

Volks,

I've been off the list for about a year due to the WB having head
problems. I've also just totalled my 98 Beetle with a TDI and five
speed. Has anyone successfully transplanted one into the rear of a Vanagon?

I need to respond to the insurance company soon if I want to buy the
carcass for salvage. Any advice appreciated.

PS   NB is a very safe car. I missed a turn in the rain at 75 mph, went
over the concrete barrier,  and rolled down a bank onto some railroad
tracks. Car is history, but  I was unhurt. It rolled somewhat like a
jelly bean.

TIA

Fred
