WELCOME ABOARD SHEILAH!

Where are you located? If you're lucky you can find a group of diehard
vanagon enthusiasts near you that will help you out or at least get together
and answer some of your questions. At the very least, you've always got us
here! This is a great community and while these are great cars (as we all
agree), it's the community that is what keeps us going and striving to keep
them on the road!

Best of luck to you, and welcome aboard!

Sincerely,
Craig Cowan
