Very cool. It's no secret that has been a long time dream of mine-the practicality of the VW Westfalia and the reliability of a Chevy (don't laugh, some, like the Astro, are very reliable!). Turtle Top used to be one brand of Westfalia like pop tops on domestic vans, although I guess they were more like Riviera's than Westfalias- tops went straight up.<Sigh> If only I could fit a Westy interior in my '98 Astro AWD-think Syncro!
