Right now I don't have a VW, I'm driving a 91 Grand Caravan ($150 at an auction) but I am looking for a VW (at the auctions <g>). Over the years I have had many VW's from the first car I bought (a '59 VW bus) to the last VW (an 86 Synco) and several other vans along the way (another 59, a 63, a 71 [that I really liked], a 70 something 9 pass, 65 Chevy, 83 Dodge & a 79 Toyota 4x4). I'm a van kinda person <g>. I'm not sure why I like the VW, could be the room inside, could be the class, could be that I can work on it myself (I learned about turning wrenches with that first 59 (had more than one of that year) & and Muir's book). Anyway I'm looking for another. Part of that is this list, part of that is asking questions about problems that I'll probably face- like the seam rust, I asked about that & learned. The front bench seat is another one of those 'questions'. I really liked having a front bench seat but have never seen a Vanagon with one, I figured if I found a Vanagon I could put a full front seat in... so I asked, maybe someone has already worked thru some of the problems. Anyway that's where I'm coming from.
