Try over at type2.com for info on this. I am on the vintage bus list, which is related to that list. I don't know much about those new buses...mine is a '65. I'm sure folks on that list would be more than happy to help you out. Good luck... -Kevin '71 FI squareback '65 kombi somerville, ma -----Original Message----- From: Mike VW [mailto:mikes_type_3s_and_4s@yahoo.com] Subject: [T3] VW Buses Hi all. I know that you are all type 3 junkies, but could any of you be able to help me out? There is a 1973 Westy near my house that the guy is giving away for free. I have stoped to look at it and it is completly solid in all the usual areas. It needs the usual panel under the windshield along with a 1-1/2" diameter hole in the cargo floor fixed. This buds has no engine or trans. The question that I have is if the engine and trans out of my 412 sedan would fit into it. Both are the same year, and I believe that they are the same engine?? I know that you would have to redo the hole intake system and engine tin but would it be woth getting this bus and doing this conversion?? I have little money, and have been looking for a bus for a while( whant something with style to pull my Type 3's). Let me know what you think.
