Chris and all,

No one has been deemed "keeper" yet...

I've been unable to contact the glass shop
owner this week.  It turns out that his wife
had to have some kind of surgery, and he's
not expected back until next week.

There's also been some questions pop up
about which molds are which....  There's
actually 7 pieces laying around, and the
shop owner said 4 of them were VW and
the other 3 were Ford. But there's been
some question about whether the bottom
piece shown in the photos is actually Ford
or VW.

There's also rumors afloat that there may
be TWO sets of Vanagon molds.

Some folks have sent me photos of the Ford
Adventurewagons, and the mold on the
bottom of the stack does look more like VW
than Ford....l

I guess next week I try and get more info
about what's what and try and make sure
I get ALL the RIGHT pieces.

Arrgh!! This is getting more complicated all
the time.

So that's the current status, and hopefully
it will be resolved soon.

Steve
