Re: WANTED:VW BUS
Wow. Who would have thought that a VW microbus would ever command five (let alone six!) figure prices?!?
(I remember looking at a nice VW microbus in 1979, and passing on it because I thought it was overpriced at $2000. I eventually bought a 1971 Super Beetle for $1200. I really miss that car...
Ah, the 70s was a great decade......

Re: WANTED:VW BUS
Personally, I'd put a lot more faith in the Subaru engine than I would a stock VW bus engine. And liquid cooling in my opinion would be a major plus, especially if the seller figured out a way to patch the engine into the heat and defrost system in the bus. That would be way better than the VW design.
