I just started building a model of an 80-83.5 Westy from Revell. Bought it on eBay for $15. I assumed when I saw it on eBay, that it was pretty old, but when I looked at the instructions, I found they are copyrighted 1997! Are these things still sold new? Anyone ever seen a model of a late-model Westy? I am also planning to try to modify the suspension to make it look like a Syncro.. Amazing what we'll do when it is too rainy to work on our Vanagons, eh? :-) Maybe I'll use Euro-spec clear turn signals... Brent Christensen '89 GL Syncro Westy Santa Barbara, CA |
