Thing's growing on me too.    still not smiling rosey over the paint
choice, but with a bit of work that could be a fun vehicle.   kind of a
Singlecab transporter?

But still...      could have used an Aerostar!

perhaps a canvas roof, make it a troop transporter? (for Soccer moms)

I'd use the thing to DJ outdoor parties.   portable stage, generator,
etc...  all in one!

(my 82 westy is the official transport vehicle of  www.djambassador.com
   that's my ugly mug on there)
