well, for a passenger vanagon ......
and a modest and not late model one ........
those look darn desirable !
I doubt it, but I almost might have worked on the kitsap one .....there was
a blue 84 I worked on in Port Townsend, Wa .......near 'kitsap',   that was
blue.......
and strangely, the best handling 2WD stock vanagon I've ever driven
.........wanted to put in a power slide at any excuse.  All it had were good
Michelin tires too.......but superb handling balance.

that rear seat .....nice !
oh........it's a Z bed, right ?
