The 10/23/00 CBS Evening News ran a story about the treatment
of women in Afghanistan. The broadcast used various scenes of life in
today's Afghanistan and one shot in particular was of note for this
group. The scene showed a loaf style VW bus with the usual 4 tire
arrangement replaced with a single axle/two tires mounted midship with
the bus being pulled like an Ox cart. Those who are looking for an
alternate conversion, keep this in mind. Especially if gas prices
continue to rise.
