While traveling in far western PA last fall, I was enticed off I-70 by a sign advertising "100,000 Hubcaps, Next Exit." It turned out to be truth in advertising. This business was apparently the entire reason for an interchange at that location, (which seemed eminently reasonable to me at the time) as there was neither a gas station nor a bar, only a couple of farmhouses. The fellow in the office (in the front of the large storage shed to which I was denied admittance) was knowledgeable and helpful. He cheerfully took my $ in exchange for my desired old Volvo wheel covers. He indicated that most of his business came by mail and phone requests. It seems reasonable that any place that has archaic Volvo wheel covers should be a natural for Vanagons. Since I have obviously misplaced their name, address, and phone number (why else would I ramble on like this?), are there any Listees in that area who can provide specific details?
