In my experience, it's gotten progressively harder to find solid Busses here on in the Philadelphia area,to the point that most of the completely solid ones I've seen recently are either garage kept or from elsewhere. Vanagons, however, hadn't seemed as rust prone, until recently. For the first time, I've started noticing some Vanagons with major cancer. Severely rusted Vanagons aren't the norm here yet (more common is surface rust around the body panel seams), but 100% rust-free ones are no longer the norm either. I guess it's to be expected, unfortunately, as they get older... -Ron Salmon
