Crazy offer for a telented SVX mechanic

I figure this is worth a shot, I've got a 94 AWD Bordeaux SVX, I need to swap the tranny and rear differential for a 4.44 from another Subaru. I haven't found one yet because I'm living in Mexico and don't have access to a lot of wrecked Subarus. Is there anyone out there who would transport and perform the swap for me here in Mexico in exchange for a week with a beach home to yourselves?

The house sleeps 6 in beds, three more on couches, has a great view of the ocean nice decks etc. I'll pay for the equipment and the house and at least one great celebratory dinner on me.

Its in Rocky Point, 3 1/2 hours South of Phoenix on the Sea of Cortez. http://rptimes.com/newspaper.html

I know its a long shot, but its like 85 degress out today, what's the weather like where you are?

I may have found someone crazy enough!

I'm waiting to hear back from a SVX Network Veteran who might be wanting to warm up a little. If everything works out you should expect some images from his trip that will almost certainly result in painful envy!

You can be assured that the words warm and Colorado do not go together in December.

It's cold enough here, but we're going to Kansas City, MO for Christmas and I think it's supposed to be colder there. Brrrrr!

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.
