Your the main reason we want to meet, to see the new engine, do you need someone to look after your van while your out of town, I could drive it daily to keep it working smoothly Razz

I will be there except by unforeseen circumstances.

BTW - do any of you do any island music festivals??
We are looking forward to the Sooke River Bluegrass Fest next month and the Cowichan Folkfest in July... both great with the kids.

Hey!
Is there a Victoria meet-up coming in JUne?
Can I come out and play, too?

I'm out in Sooke, driving an 82/1.9TD. The van was my mum's and came with an NA 1.6Diesel which lasted almost 140,000km! Swapped to TD about 10K ago. Just had Autospiel re-make the engine mounts we tried to make for the conversion.

Let me know what's up!
David

Oh yeah David you can come! Maybe we can have three TD out of Russels shop.

So the discussion above was to meet up 2:00 June 6th at Beaver Lake - but someone (speedygeorge?) posted a note on usedvic to meet tomorrow... I know I cant make it tomorrow but if no one shows on the 6th I will do a little fishing instead Smile

You cats let me know when and where and I'll try to be there.

I'm wondering if there is much interest in having another Vanagon meet for Victoria area owners? Beaver lake again, sometime before Christmas?

Hoping this guy will show up... This westy syncro was parked down at the harbour last week and is one of the nicest vanagon westy syncros out there. Really nice paintjob. 16" wheels. And inside - 3 knobs (just to get the drool really flowing)!

I'd sure like to have a look under the engine cover etc on this one.
