Shane-

I grew up in Orlando.  I don't know of anyone in Gainesville, but I was
always very happy with the work done on my van by a guy named Richard at
K and K auto repair.  I don't live there anymore, but I think they are
still around.  There's an auto repair and a parts store so don't get
confused if you look up the number.  There's also a dealer on Lee Rd. in
Orlando called Royal now I think (changed names since I was there).  If
you're willing to pay dealer prices they do excellent work and they
specialize in Vanagons.  Hope this helps
