One more time... repeat after me... "There no Weekenders made in '85, only
Westfalia Wolfsburg Edition campers."

The only reference to Vanagon "Weekender Package" is to hard-top Vanagons
with a folding rear seat and engine compartment cushion for sleeping.

A Weekender did not arrive until the Eurovan in the form of a pop-top camper
with a folding rear seat for sleeping and no cabinetry whatsoever.
