   So, on these RMW conversions....did the people you mention simply take
their Vanagons in for the conversion, then later come back, pay the Shop
and just turn the key and drive away, happy?
   Or did they get an instruction booklet and a shrink-wrapped,
pallet-mounted, reconditioned Subaru and have to cart it home and work for
days before they turned that key...?
