dear trevor
i just started following your blog ..
interesting stuff on your restore project
i live in powell river and just took ownership of an 84 with many issues ...
one at a time i will remedy ...
i used to own a 1969/ 1970 bay that had the plates fixed to the outside ...
it also had an extra plate attached that identified the vehicle as belonging
to the california road runners club ...
that was attached right beside the westfalia werks plate
the interior of the van was really a weekender type until i found a wrecked
westie to pull the full campermobile interior from
that was a long time ago ...
yours
