Subject:Detlev Says Hi to List from Germany!
Date:Thu, 26 Aug 1999 09:26:49 EDT

As some of you know, Detlev Hanschke, is now in Germany.  I talked to him
today and he says "Hi" to the List and is doing well.

He told me a few things that I think the List would be interested in.
First he says that he can get brand new TDI engines from Germany complete
with everything (wiring harness, ECU, turbo, intake, injection pump, etc) for
$6500.  These engines are hard to find here in the US but are more plentiful
over there.  If you are interested about one of these please pmail me.

Second, Detlev is looking into importing a '90 Double Cab Turbo diesel!  He
is still doing research on this but he has found the truck at a good price
and wants to bring it back to the US with him.  Does anyone see any major
problems with this?  I wonder if he can do it as there were no '90 Turbo
Diesel Vanagons sold here in the US, but besides that I don't see any big
problems.

Also if anyone wants any of the stuff from Winkler now is the time to order
it since Detlev is over there and can speed up and personally inspect any
order that we get before he comes back to the US (September 3rd).
Thanks,
Ken Wilford
