Welcome to the list. I'm just past Kitchener if you are ever in the area.

Keep your eyes open for a good van - wait and you will find the right one. Be prepared to drive/fly south for a rust free one. Even the "rust free" ones here are rusty. If it's been resprayed recently - ask for before pics. If it was in Ontario for it's whole life - it will be rusty, and it WILL come back.

Our 83 Westy came from a list member. It was a great buy and originally a California van. I can't believe how much cleaner it is than a local one. So be prepared to travel!

Cheers and welcome,

Jason
