I know of a couple trannys in Tampa, I'll be checking the lock on my shop
twice before going to bed:)
I found my tranny's at local U-Pull-It's here in Tampa.  Vanagons don't show
up very often, so I pick them clean when they come in.
Orlando and Tampa-St. Pete have many JY's with computerized inventory and
can even check other local yards to find what you need.  A yellow pages and
a couple phone calls should do it.
I can't recommend any non-U-Pull-It'$, because I don't use them frequently.
I tend to accumulate parts(junk to others) and then just get what I need
from the shop when one of my beaters breaks down.
I could check into some places if necessary, pmail if interested...
