He had a European replacement for the plastic front grill of the round headlighted Vanagons. This grill had the typical Hdlights as well as a set of halogen "driving" lights. I considered it for two nanosecs until he clarified that he wanted $400. for the set up including the halogens. "Quite rare." (Un-huh~ what the person who'd pay $400 or what!) Doop, no thanks... I didn't even have the $350. that he wanted for the NOS side tent that some listees would buy for $600! He went home w/o the tent and with the the front grill. >-ellis\ >Yup, the others who have responded are correct. I now remember that he did indeed say that he imported the item from South Africa. I think I can find the business card if anyone is seriously interested.
