Those little Chevy V-6's fit in the Vanagon, I forget - either Sudhir
Desai or Ron Lussier - one of them - drove a Chevy V6 powered Vanagon.
Had a little tranny trouble all along - had a medical problem that kept
blowing the tranny. Very sad story. . Bad case of "Lead Foot" getting
away for the stop lights.
