New From WA Country SW
The Codgers bought a 1985 VW Caravelle GL Bus 5 speed manual 4 Cylinder 1913 CC watercooled F4 engine Group T3 platform (Vanagon) RR Layout
(Rear-Engine, Rear-wheel drive layout) in November 2007.
The puzzle now is to decide what to do about the head gasket problem (crevice corrosion) - water just pours straight out.
Who in WA would be good people to take it to?
Thanks
The Codgers

Hi
Don't know anybody over there but I'm sure a local will chime in. Get a quote but also consider a Subaru conversion.

Yes, we have been studying the Subaru conversion but decided we would need to have it done by someone else. Question: Who? Read up on people in Qld
and NSW who would be great for the work. Then thought we ought to fish our feet first! Heard of a guy called Seagull here (Perth, at least), but
don't know more than that. Except that he did some extraordinary work on a motor bike!
Oh, and I have given up on the Avatar lark! Got my pics smaller and smaller, but still too big, and now too fuzzy!
