I enhanced the pics as well to see better details but could not confirm 100% how the windshield is supported at that angle. I see that dark area which looks like reinforcement and also the wipers which appear redesigned to park below the glass. I also see what appears to be rust on the bottom corner on the driver's side. That's what got me thinking parts van. Practical? For a bug catcher.:-)

You see the canopy attached to the side, chairs etc. Wipers are not removed, but are moved down to clear the windshield. There are no sticks keeping it up, as I would expect in a hack job. Also, in the frontal shot, just a little higher than halfway up the windshield you see what looks like support mounts. From the side you see a thick frame, much thicker than a seal. You also see a seal at the bottom of the window frame on the vehicle body. > > Yeah, it's real. > > http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b7/misterpolak/Misc%20VW%20nuttiness/VanagonSafari2.jpg > http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b7/misterpolak/Misc%20VW%20nuttiness/VanagonSafari1.jpg > > > |
