Is the bus depot already flooded with e-mail? It looks like both my e-mail to them (fabric and sink cover please :-) bounced and their site is temporarily down... like frightening wolves at the hunt... -Damon

This is the stuff that I went to Europe and hand-picked myself back in December. I was like a kid in a candy store! Imagine, a warehouse full of long-forgotten Vanagon parts, still in the original cartons, ripe for the picking! It took days to sort through it all; for every worthwhile part there were 20 more that were practically worthless for one reason or another. But it was worth it. This is definately the biggest stash of N.O.S. Vanagon parts I've ever found; an opportunity that doesn't come up more than once or twice in a lifetime.

All of it is genuine Westfalia and Volkswagen stock, which had been sitting in a warehouse for years, long forgotten and collecting dust ever since the last Vanagon left the production line. Most, but not all, are interior parts. A few are optional accessories that have never been seen in the U.S. before. There is original Volkswagen seat upholstery still in the original packaging, door panels, curtains, poptop canvas, tail lights, tables, even genuine Westfalia side tents (sans poles, unfortunately) and a ski rack!

Rather than to list it all here, I put up a special List Members' web page, http://www.busdepot.com/members.htm .

I'm giving Vanagon and Syncro list members first crack at this stuff. So for a short time, the parts will be coded not to appear on the regular Bus Depot web pages, nor will there be any links to the above page from BusDepot.com. In a couple of weeks, however, the general public will get to pick through what's left (most likely at higher prices).

Happy hunting! :-)
