Yup, I agree, what's up with that Maaco paint job....or is my monitor
off? If I had to guess, I would also agree that it's had 94K on the
odo since 94. As far as the AC cowling, I've seen these all over the
place on several Vanagons I've purchased. Hell, there was just a
remaining shard of plastic on an 86 Syncro rollover I purchased in
97......in short, I wouldn't spend too much time doing the CSI thing
over these, especially considering how many McGyvers have been there
before I! Uhm, look no further than the paint, I say......
