Wow, everything Marc needs I need done except front brake work, Jay did that already, so by time I get my parts everyone should know what to do on my Vanawent. Marc's Van will be good practice for LoveBustoo.

Oh, I already did the new pump and filter and alternator.

Yea Jack, that list grows fast... it also adds up fast$$$...  bugey--   Makes me appreciate the cost of a bug! And, the bug makes me appreciate the space in a bus!

At least you have gotten to drive your van! In fact the only time I have ever been behind the wheel of a vanagon was when I test drove a syncro in NY when I was looking for my bus!

Im looking forward to wrenching!

I know Marc, the bucks just seem to fly out the window. What do we really save by buying something that needs work. I guess it depends on how much work it needs aand it still never ends.

I just remembered I need to replace the windshield seal, needs body work around it.

On the menu for the weekend is:

Replace the Braking System ( calipers, rotors, soft lines, hard lines, drums, wheel cylinders, shoes)

Replace Fuel System- (New Tank, Pump, Lines, Filter, the rest will already be on the motor)

Install Stainless Steel Coolant Pipes.

Install New Radiator

Install Engine


I almost forgot, the Ball Joints!

 Ha-ha your right Buddy. the labor and money seems to never end.. Not like it was in the 60's is it?  #@rofl3
