When i was looking at options I found that old toyota trucks were the same
width as a vanagon as I'm sure other offroady SUVs are.  Looking at the
brush guard/bull bars on some of those at junkyards makes me think it would
be easier to adapt the frame mounting and just use one of these.  At least
cheaper to experiment with.

But anyway, Adrian, I have the aircooled bumpers on my syncro if you want to
come take a look at them and I think there is beer in the fridge.
