When I 1st heard of this place I dreamed of getting them all, the
Adventurewagen molds, a bunch of late model Subi motors, Big Brakes and al the
other goodies and building 10 really cool campers a year give or take for people
 who would take good care of them and could afford them.  Just like the
people who rebuilt the GMC motorhomes and called them GMCII's.  Did I say  the
engines would be the diesel Subi's and have torque and mpg's to beat all
and  there would be perfect floorplans to suit all.
Long Live The Vanagon!

yes I am awake and if I win the lotto  I could do this and if they  didn't
sell I could keep them or give them to worthy peeps (not the marshmellow
kind)

That's  about what I counted Stephen. There were 36 ot 37 vans on the lot
that  could be counted using Google Earth, and using
their horizon-angle feature,  it was fairly easy to surf and find the Westy
roofs.
