that's not a carat.    that's a non-GL base model  van.

Hi  all.

Saw a '90 Carat (or so ad says) for sale on CL. Vehicle being sold  by
Messmer Motors in Tacoma WA.

From Wiki via Vanagonwiki: "For 1990  and 1991 model years, a "Carat" trim
level was available which included all  available options "

In this image, is this OEM rubber  carpet?

Maybe  this bus was imported (used) from Germany or ? so that's why there's
an  analogue clock where tach should be (?)

That  is a clock right?

Was looking for Carat specific info but Vanagon.com  resource seems to be
down.

Looks like an interesting ride. If it  were rust free, I'd consider dealing
with a dealership.   (not my  first choice)
