John and fellow Vanagon owners,

I went out to his place a few years back when I was looking for a
Vanagon. John D. Bigelow does have a great selection, and all the vans I
saw were top notch, and you will pay a premium for that. He finds good
used vans, buys them, fixes them, and sells them for a profit, "the
American way". I would recommend him to anyone. He has been in the car
selling business for 20 plus years, and knows what he is talking about
when it comes to Vanagons, Eurovans, or just about any European
automobile. He is also a one-man operation, so you deal with the owner
face to face, I like that. I am not sure who his mechanic is now, but in
the past he dealt with the now defunct "Eurocars" owner Ken Morgan, and
John may very well still employ Ken for engine work. 

Anyway, bottom line is you will get a very nice Westy from JDB imports.
If I had the money, I would go straight over there and pick one up
today. 

Just one man's opinion.

Happy motoring!

I am in Utah, and if the snow ever stops, I might consider taking a
drive to say hi and check out the merchandise, so I am wondering if
anyone has a real life opinion of him and his business?

Thanks for you time,

John
