I bring the same as everyone for tools, tie-wire, electrical test lights
etc.  A water pump/alternator belt...fuel pump and filter.  Master cylinder
(old one).
 Having a transplanted inline 4 VW, most of the parts are readily
available...same as Jetta, Rabbit, some new Beetles, etc etc etc.  And most
VW mechanics will work on it without special knowledge needed...Maybe half a
dozen different long running VW models used  the same basic 1.8>2liter motor
for years so most shops know how to fix em and have the part access covered.
  Instead of Vanagon-specific parts stash, I can carry lots of bicycle
spares...
