Subject:Cost surprises in a VW search

I'm actively looking for a cheap VW, it's been too long without one
(26 years of having some type of VW bus-van-vanagon I sold my last
one in '97).

Cheap is the word of note here, I suspect cheap doesn't exist in the
VW world anymore.

I look. Ok, so it needs an engine. I've built several 40hp motors and
the '71 dual port... how hard can it be these days? Then I looked
today at the prices. Things have changed since I did that last 1600dp in '88!

I'll keep looking, something will work out. It's really time I was
driving a VW to work again.
Anyone want to buy an '85 Jeep Cherokee? There will be a 'for sale'
sign in the window tomorrow.
