I have way too much competition here with so many Vanagon owners and shops around!

 

Good luck, but I’d still try the subaruvanagon list for a donor.

Why do you say dreaming? A few years ago I put out the same call, and got a 2.1 engine for free! You just never know!

You guys are dreaming, but if you contact shops that do conversions you may increase your odds of finding something.

Good luck!
