Zoran,

So why are you going to take a running van is seemingly decent condition and
destroy it by parting it out?

They don't make these things any more - remember!

And if it has the rear facing seats, that means it has the Wolfsburg / Carat
type interior, it is a much less common Vanagon configuration - the interior
is hardly standard.

Sell it to someone who'll fix it up and keep it alive and running.
