Guilty as Charged!! My Vanagon is the Millennium Falcon III , my 79 was II and my 1971 was simply, The Millennium Falcon ...and as Hans Solo said, "It ain't pretty, but it gets me there." I had a name plate for the 71, transferred it to the 79 and didn't other with the Vanagon. Iowa has plates up front so that kinda killed that.
