Loren, 

Just a thought... Was your '90 Westy sold new in California?  

Many 1991 Vanagons (produced between 09/90 and 12/90) were sold in California as 1990 models in order to get around the new OBD regulations.

In 1991, the Westy was available in Orly Blue.

Cheers, 

Jeff

That's a great source but not entirety accurate.  My '90 Westy was
originally Orly Blue but that color is not listed for '90 Campers.  So I
assume there are other omissions.
