My husband has a few antique John Deeres and I always thought it would be
kind of cool to have the matching Vanagon! Instead I stick a red Farmall or
John Deere track antennae topper on our Syncro and make do. We attend the
big antique tractor show in Tulare every April. Until this year we drove the
Syncro, but now we have a Dodge Cummins to pull our tractors with so we'll
drive it this year. The last two years someone camped there in a Westfalia,
late model, white if memory serves.
