anyone with caravelle for wrecking
KittyKat - January 20th, 2011 at 07:36 PM

Hi I have a an 89 GL auto caravelle and parts are just about impossible to buy. Anyone have any suggestions for mechanical parts, and also interior trim parts. I'm getting desperate.and I love her dearly...just want to keep her in excellent condition.
My vw mechanic has suggested immediately to look for a 2.1 water cooled coolant tower /thermostat housing base... any ideas.
