Subject:      New '87 Wolfie owner!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

All,
   A couple of days ago I had informed the list about the '87 Wolfie I
was considering purchasing.
   Well. . . I am now the proud owner of a brand spanking new(at least
to me it is) 1987 VW Vanagon Wolfsburg edition!!!  ALthough it is not
officially in my hands yet, it will be tonight!
   She even already has a name!  It was a name that I was considering
for my dog and really like the meaning, but it just didn't fit.  But
for the van, it is perfect.  Her name is "Bergner," which is German for
"from the mountains."  Which is where I would like to spend most of my
time with her!  So the name fits a lot better than it would for a
hungarian bird dog(a Vizsla)!
    The price that we settled on was $4500 which I think is a fair deal
for both of us.  I am sure that there will be few quirks here and there
that I will be asking about, but isn't that part of the love of owning
and Vanagon!
    This couldn't have been better timing either, with the 4th coming
up and all.  For its crisining(sp?) we will be headed to the Trinity
Alps in No. Cal.   What better way to start th bond between owner and
van 8-)
    Anyways, as all could imagine, I am anxiously waiting for when I
pick up her and she is "officially" mine!

'87 Wolfie(Bergner) long awaited!
