<< I've gotten a lot of responses about these vans. When I find out more info
I
 will let you know. Here is what I know now. Michael Papp purchased these vans
 in Germany in 2001. He had them shipped to the USA and sold them on Ebay
 during shipment in dec. 2001. I won the 90 crewcab and sent a deposit to
 Michael as did the other winners. Michael was never able to get the vans out
 of customs. It took us six months to get our money back. The vans have been
 held by US Customs in Camden, NJ for 2 years. Somehow a friend of mine/vw
 mechanic in NJ has been able to purchase the vans from customs to sell as
 parts. He was told he cannot sell the vans as entire vehicles and will be
 required to prove he hasn't from time to time. He doesn't want to be
 contacted until he has the vans in his possesion. He is supposed to pick them
 up in Camden later this week. I will post his info when/if he is ready for
 all the questions. Please email me at Doinks99@aol.com with anymore >>

Sorry I missed this post before sending my last response.
