i actually have a nine passenger 85 vanagon here for parts.. has the steel
bulkhead..non walk thru.

lister Tom F. has my old '83.5 Nine passenger sunroof van...the classic white
over blue, and has the bench front seat and full width middle seat.. very
cool van..   IIRC tom may even be contemplating putting it on the market, so this
rare van might be for sale soon..  great for y'all with lots of rugrats!
