Hey Marty (and all),

> Hello - I just joined the group and I have a '85 Vanagon I bought in
> December for $1000.

We bought our '85  in February!  Welcome!

> What about ordering/finding curtains for the side windows?

I'd check ebay before paying for new ones - there's a set on there right
now, I think.  busdepot.com has them too, new.  You might have to get
the whole set, not sure.  Make sure you check all the storage cabinets
first - we thought we needed new ones for the front but we found them
under the middle seat before we ordered :)

> know what "model" my vanagon is?

I used the cool VIN lookup thing at http://www.vanagon.com/info/vin/ -
just have your VIN handy and it'll tell you what you have.

By the way, I don't have a Vanagon according to that page, I have a
Kombi.  What's a kombi, can anyone tell me how that's different from a
Vanagon?

:) Liz
