Subject:Audi Steering wheel on a diesel

Hey Folks,

While searching through one of our local U Pull It's in Portland, I came
across this 1982 model (made in 1981) Diesel Vanagon, westy conversion.

It's been painted, and used to be the bright VW yellow. What originally
caught my eye, was that manufacturer plate says it was made in 8/81. Then
when I looked in front, I saw the hole below the grille, where a radiator
might go. "But this was made in 1981 I thought." Didn't think there were
water cooled Vanagons then. Finally, I looked up, and saw a few markings
saying it was a diesel.

I liked how they had added an Audi steering wheel to it.

Have a look.

I'm off to check out a few more junk yards today. Film at 11. :)
