Greetings from Germany list members!

I have to say that my
Vanagon driving days may now be numbered after my latest purchase!  I
am prepairing a 1992 Volkswagen LT DoKa 4x4 to come to
Canada.  What a nice truck!  We had to replace one of the
exhaust manifold gaskets on this inline 6 cylinder engine and it took us
about 3h to accomplish that - this means taking our time and drinking some
beers while doing it.  To accomplish this on a Vanagon would take a
lot more than three hours.  As far as being a simple vehicle to work
on - this is it!  Speed on the other hand, well, lets say max speed
on the autobahn is 115km/h which is not bad for a 4.5 tonne truck!

After enjoying the rest of the Easter weekend, it will be off to
see if I can find a nice KTM motor cycle from the Austrian army or a
Hercules from the German army and then off to Wolfsburg with the LT and
then to Bremerhaven to start it�s trip to Canada.

Well..
brunch is calling!
