Brad,
What kind of resources?  If you're looking to purchase a bus, go to
(www.ep.com), click on Volkswagens, then vans.  It'll give you a pretty
good listing of bus availability around the country.  And, as they're all
for sale, a benchmark for price comparison.  There's also
(www.autotrader.com) that's a big help, but listings for buses are rather
limited.

This list is perhaps the most valuable tool available for Vanagon
questions.  On any given topic, there's someone, somewhere that's
been-there, done-that - twice.  It's a very friendly, tolerant list.  No
one seems to get their gander up answering "newbie questions".  Sure, we
have a couple of wise-guy's, but they're mostly bluster and too full of
themselves to be any threat.

There is an archive available of the Vanagon list.  When you joined there
should have been a set of instructions on how to do an e-mail archive
search.  If not, no worry, mate.  Just go to (www.vanagon.com) and read
thru the site.  Plenty of interesting stuff - instructions for searchs,
links, travels, and the like.

HTH & good luck.  Oh, and welcome to the list.

Subject:        van newbie

Hello Everyone,

I am new to this list and vans as well. I have dreamed
of having a van for a while and am getting ready to
purchase one. I have started my research (that is how
I found this list) but still have a lot of reading to
do. I was hoping you all might be able to point me to
some good resources. Thanks!

Oh yeah, I noticed a thread about data on the road. Is
this list archived anywhere? I would like to read the
entire thread.

Thanks Again,
Brad
