The other half were owned by Jeff's VW Repair in Mooresville...

Also... I reduced the T3 population when I moved back to Cali from
Plainfield  :-)

Cheers,

Jeff

Pete's right about Indiana. I live in Indy and own two Vanagons. Based on
the quantity I've seen on the road since Oct '08, I'd say I own about half
the known Vanagons in Indy.
