Bostig has been providing the simplest and most reliable engine conversion system for VW Vanagons since 2005.

Just sourced 2 more Zetecs for the still 🔥🔥super hot🔥🔥 Bostig Turnkeys. 55k miles, and 63k miles, for $350ea. It is more calling around than years ago, but anyone that tells you they've dried up is talking nonsense. #bostig #stillgotit #bydesign

Spotted @_LaCompagnie from @KLM KL 617 from AMS to KBOS yesterday. We were at 38K' and South of the tip of Greenland. Bonjour! #PlaneSpotting

@MassRMV Also this isn't being snarky, you don't want people being hangry on top of the waiting, makes it much worse. Just hit 3hrs of waiting here.

[Jim Akiba @bostiginc]

@MassRMV That's really good. You might also advise people going to branches to pack for a plane trip. If the people here in Braintree had food, water, laptops and headphones, I bet they wouldn't be getting so pissed about the 2+ hour wait.

What's flexing its muscles in the dark? Just the next level of power, reliability, and flexibility for your Vanagon. Stay Tuned. #VanagonFlexing #BostigEvolution #ReliableVanLife

48k mile zetec in gorgeous shape for the spring install! DM or email Bostig to snag it and get on the road! #bostig #vanlife

Bostig has some news on some new stuff for the New Year coming soon... Some Vanagon stuff, and some of it completely not van related (but many of you may be interested anyhow!). Updates to the kit, and a call for Beta testers are just a couple of the areas #bostig #vanagon

[Jim Akiba @bostiginc]

The Bostig fall/winter 22 installation opportunity is open in Boston! If you've always wanted to have a Bostig, installed by Bostig... Now's the time! Email [email protected] #bostig #vanlife #vanagon

Ordering more parts for kits, materials prices are truly shocking compared to last year. Unfortunately pricing on the kits will be going up significantly next week. Get in before you're kicking yourself on the pricing. https://t.co/L1yAL6nRjA
