Gonna be in Princeton in the towing yard next week gathering all my stuff and stripping as many parts as possible off this thing. I got one offer from a guy on here to strip the motor, axles etc, for 1000 but he hasn't got back to me since.

I think im just gonna strip everything I can with whatever resources, tools, help I end up with then truck it back to the island and look for a new van...

Or this guy in the Kootenays might have a blown engine deli for sale for 2500. I thought this sounded a little steep though.. and it would mean doing all the work in the Kootenays...

THOUGHTS/IDEAS? I have a 3 week window to figure all this crap out...

Feel free to come help me strip my ride next week if your available... I've never done a job like this before but I know there's only one way to learn!

Make me some offers on stuff if you want?

I just need a direction to head in! I really want another Delica... but its tempting to convert something else, like a cummins or an old fire engine. But the Delica serves all my needs! especially Winter camping...

What a situation. No job. No Delica. NO WORRIES! This will all work out...
