We’re baaaaack (finally) with another van project update! This one has been an emotional ROLLERCOASTER as we tackled an engine swap for our 1972 Volkswagen Westfalia camper van. We explored countless options, even went so far as to buy an old Subaru just to salvage its engine (yep, we bought a car for our car). But, despite our best efforts, things didn’t go quite as planned. Stick with us to see how Austin and I eventually found a solution!
Big thanks to Letitia and Stef! Check out their channel here:
