I am pretty sure this is the same vanagon that I have seen at several
bus campouts in AZ over the years.  The couple that own it are
ancient-ahh, much older than anybody else at these campouts-maybe in
their mid/late 80's?  In any event, the owner makes & sells unique
vanagon accessories, non of which I can remember or have needed, but
kinda cool. I think 1 is a prop rod for the rear hatch to hold it
slightly open, but still secure?  The last time I saw them, they had
a teardrop camping trailer behind the vanagon?

These volks have gone for it, got into the whole bus scene, etc. for
a long time,  & I am sad to see that they are selling it.  As several
volks have noticed, the vanagon has been obsessed over for 17 years,
& I am sure everything is in mint condition, but the price still
seems a little steep.

Pax,

Tom B.-hope I am still gungho/alive at that age & doing vanagons
