I imagine this is a common occurrance for some of you, but it isn't around
here where Vanagons are rare.  Today I saw a van that could almost have
been my Westy's twin.  Brown Westfalia with a while pop-top, looked like
roughly the same vintage.  Spotted it at the corner of Ellsworth and Platt
in Ann Arbor, Michigan.  One of you guys, perhaps?  Unfortunately I was
driving the Honda at the time. ;)
