Subject:A red letter day for Westy sightings in Madison/Wisconsin
From:Bob Stevens

There are so many in this area, of both Vanagons and Eurovans. The man I
bought mine from has a light blue Euro and has done some "converting" to
make it more like the Westy. I went up to Park City Ski Resort today to bike
with friends and saw 3 Westy's on the way and 4 or 5 Euro's on the way and
in the parking lot. This area is lush with all kinds of VW's though. Sort of
the Pop-Culture car in this area. They found "drivers" here.
