Howdy all, My wife and I and some friends have just returned from a couple weeks off the List and Westie camping in the Florida Keys. We camped at Long Key St. Park the entire time. A beautiful place to camp. All the sites are water-front and mostly shaded with swimming,fishing,boating and whatever a few steps from your site. Lots of aquatic life, unusual birds,fish, and plants to observe. An ideal Westie area. Also interesting to visit, is Key West, a city of full of a mellow tropical ambiance. While spending the day there, I happened to notice an unusual Westie with a sloped front end configuration (similar in appearance to a Ford Aerostar front) . I couldn't tell if it was a custom modification or some type of Brazilian/Euro hybrid. It was raining and the owners wern't around and I didn't have time to thoroughly check it out (I was being harassed by my vanagon Illiterate companions) but from a quick glance at the rear, it might have been a diesel. Anyway, it was odd to see the single radiator grill sitting just above the bumper and protruding forward a bit. Rick Koller '90 syncro Westie '81 reg.
