Hello all, As many of you know I was building a hidden type trailer hitch for the Vanagons. Well I got the prototype complete the day before my Vanagon was rearended. The hitch helped save the van from worse damage, but the hitch is now bent. It is not worth taking picture of it now. I will be building another hitch and it will be an improved design. My first was good, the second one will be great. I will make them bolt on, not welded to the brackets, and the reciever will sit lower so no cutting of the impact strip will be needed. So sorry for the delay. I do not know if the new improved type will be finished before the spring meet or not, I have a lot of work to do to the van caused by the crash. BTW, I found out that the van can be saved. A local Body shop is willing to do all of the frame pulling and let me do the rest, this way I can save it for less than the amount of money I get from the settlement. See some of you at the spring meet. ===== Scott Solomon AKA "VW addict" 85 Westy Multi-Van 83 Vanagon D parts heap 76 Triple White 'Vert 72 Super Beetle(FOR SALE) http://www.geocities.com/solomon_scott/ See my FOR SALE area __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
