I just saw a flash of the van and couldn'treally tel what it was, though what I did see made me think "Vanagon" - an in an awful predicament. Glad the guy got out alive. I wonder what happened to the van, ultimately. Not worth much after that, and a potential eyesore on the landscape at that. Regards. John Rodgers 88 GL Driver |
