even makes it more sad.. :<( passenger vans are a dime a dozen..
ive only ever seen one panel van in person, in my life..they are actually
more rare in north america than doulbecabs.. were you even aware of that neil??
IMO the rarer models such as panel vans, dokas, etc should be saved whenever
possible, but it was your van, you did with it what you wanted..
ive sent many vanagons to the crusher but nothing that was rare.
this would be akin to parting out a doka because it had some rocker rust..
but.. c�st la vi�..
not slamming you niel, but it does make me shed a tear :<(
oh well, on the bright side, you made the few that are left even more rare :<
