My 83.4 that Chris refers to was great fun, but I just
had too many vehicles to take care of.

Besides the seating for nine and the sunroof, the real
job was how simple it was compared to my 90 syncro
westfalia...no power steering - but a nice big
steering wheel, no power windows, no a/c, no power
locks, etc. With proper sized tires -as opposed to my
oversized obsession with the syncro- it moved along
quite nicely.

The feeling was totally different: it had all the
simplicity and reliability of an old bus, the heat of
a water cooled system, and the room of a vanagon. With
nine seats and a sunroof the neighborhood kids loved
it too!
