They may be cute, but any older Bus ( 79 or earlier ) ..........compared to
a vanagon ...........
I just wouldn't go near an old bus. Not safe, harder to work on, air-cooled
etc. etc. etc. etc.

You have the last year vanagon, a 91 GL, with working AC, which is valuable
where you are.
You should only let that go if it gets you into a Vanagon Camper, 87 and
later preferred,

or 85 at the oldest, those are the first good year vanagon body.

Subject: Sell my 91GL?????

Ok, Guys...I just got my 91GL about 2-3 months ago and it's in great
condition w/AC and no rust.  There are pics attached.
  A guy just knocked on my door and asked if I would sell. I paid 2500.00
and he will pay 3000.00. Has 160K and retro fit A/C 134A.
  No leaks and complete repair history(previous owner was original owner and
now is 89yrs old so never driven hard).
  Should I sell?  Kinda want a Westie or older camper bus(friend has a 74
bus w/bed and in good shape(not a camper)) that he will sell for 1000.00(a/c
needs service).
  Kinda attached to the GL 'Gringo', though and this is my first VW so don't
want to get in over my head.
  All opinions are appreciated!
  Thaaks, Michael
  91GL 'Gringo'
  P.S. I am in San Antonio.

Thanks, Michael Sullivan
