cool to own one of those, yes? Oh yeah, and the Ferrari
too . . . :^)

>> 1984 VW Vanagon used on the T.V. Magnum P.I. from the
years 1984-1988. Van is in good condition. The engine runs
great. Had engine replaced in 1999. I have the receipts of
all work. The only problem that I have with it now is that
It does not have 1st and 2nd gear. Don't know what the
problem is I drove it to work and things were fine, left
work to go home and at first traffic light the 1st and 2nd
gears stopped working. So I put her in the garage and that
is where the van has been since Aug of 2000. Would be a
great collector car for someone who loved Magnum P.I. The
van is located in Atlanta GA at this time. I have since
moved back to Hawaii in Aug 2002. Was going to just keep
her in storage but would like to see someone take care of
her better than I can at this time. Any question please
email me. I will try and fill in all the details about his
van..
