Hi folks,
If y'all ever waver from East Texas and end up in the fairly close
Shreveport area (heaven forbid,) there's a place across the river in Bossier
City called Action Imports that has a small yard with a few older Westies
and several GL's if you need anything. Very nice people, they helped me out
on a starter for mine last spring.

Chuck:
I live in Dallas and often go camping. Listings are in ordewr of
preference.
Possum Kindon Lake (40 NW of Mineral Wells)
Lake Whitney (60 Miles South of Dallas)
Bardwell Resivour (Ennis 42 Miles South of Dallas)
Purdis Resivour (Near Cedar Creek Lake off Hwy 175)
I may be moving to Tyler area soon.
Dallas is just too dirty and noisy.
You're sure right about Vanagon Westies and even earlier vans, they're
not plentiful in Texas
I see about four Vanagons around town on a regular basis and seldom see
them when I'm camping or traveling.
