Rode in my first V-dub when I was 2 (Dad had just purchased a Brand new
Coral Red '57 Beetle)
Rode and camped in my Granddad's '63 Sundial when I was 8 (I slept in
the roof mounted wedge-shaped tent)
Learned to drive in Dad's '65 Beetle at 14...
Rode and camped some more in Granddad's '71 pop-top Westy at 14, 15,
16...
Bought my first bus so long ago I don't even remember it.....
I've had well over 100 V-dubs (25 or so being Busses or Vanagons) over
the last 30 years or so...
Currently own 2 '83.5 water-cooled Westy (consecutive VINs), one 66
pop-top Westy, and a gutted '65 Sundial (which we are restoring back to
Panel truck fitment)...
Just went and looked at a 2002 EV MV... I would buy it, but it doesn't
have a pop-top...
