Very ambitious.
Would you be interested in a totally non-rusted  84 Vanagon body/chassis  ?
has an Oregon title,
located in So. Oregon.
( can be restored to a full 'runner' if anyone is interested, though I
regard it more as a Storage Unit, or possibly for mocking-up Engine
Conversion projects in. )

I also have, btw, and 85 shell from which body / frame parts can be cut.

I also have, fwiw ..
an 82 Canadian Model Diesel Vagabond, no title.

darn ...I also have  full 84 GL tintop no-title 84 as well.

with such severe rust I suspect it will be a long time before needing to
think about what color to paint it.
Just as long as you are enjoying it, that's the main thing !

stay cozy.
