Well, I've been very fortunate to have been driving Westfalias for almost 30 years. I'm on my third one, a nice '88 model. They've always been very reliable and faithful. I've never had to do too much to them to keep them going - I did have to rebuild the engine on the previous one I had. Well, my luck ran out this afternoon. I was rear ended on the way home. Not a bad incident as those things go - just busted up my rear bumper, dented a little of the sheet metal around the taillights and muffler. No one was injured - thank goodness. The person who hit me had taken her eyes off the road to see about the toddler in the back seat - just for a second. I really am glad everything on my van seems ok mechanically, she's a good hunk with a lot of miles left on her. But she's wounded. I need a new rear bumper and bumper tail piece that goes on the driver's side. Yes, the bumper is one of those black fiberglass items, so I don't expect that VW has them in stock any more. So I'm going to the list. Any ideas where I might find one?
