this, but for someone interested in AC models this might be worth checking
out. Good luck!

I have seen many of them in junkyards, including Vanagon campers. It must have
been no takers so the owner decides to junk it. Such buy back program is to
keep people from storing old clunkers on their drive way. If they don't take
the offer from the buy back program they may be forced to give it up and pay
for the removal cost. Believe it or not, I once received a notice from the city
telling me that they would come to inspect my 84 Vanagon. If I could not prove
that it is in fact drivable they would take it away. My 84 looks very decent.
No dent, no rust, with completely perfect bumpers, lights, moldings, etc.
I ignored it completely and waited for them to show up. They did not. Had they
come I would have given them a ride on the freeway to give them a taste of
Vanagon.
My point is there are many Vanagons that may be forced to the junkyard this way.
I may be wrong. But I have been amazed that each time I went to the junkyard I saw
2 to 3 different Vanagons there. Each one stayed no longer than two weeks then
gone forever.
