I didn't have a black interior rear seat, i had an '84 wolfsburg blue
cordouroy full width Zbed. And it quite literally was gathering dust in
several locations for a while, then it found a good home with Karl
Mullendore that at least (at the time) was planning to put it into his
Syncro 16'' Remo. (I consider that a good home!!!).

I bought the van with the poptop over the sunroof. I'm with you on the
sunroof though Chris, my next van is going to be a sunroof syncro..... i'm
keeping my eyes open and being patient.

'85GL turned WESTY
