Sean,

That was most likely an (VW) LT truck. There was an LT-45 (dual wheels in the
back) for sale in Southern California recently for US $4500. Then there was
that LT-28 with a Westy interior in Texas.

These look like big Vanagons. However, they have their engines and
transmissions in the front. Rear wheel drive IIRC.

Wanna see one dressed as a firetruck? Go to:
