Hey all, Robert pm-ed me this suggestion and I'll toss it out there...

   I am a skilled carpenter, shipwright, furniture maker, yacht rigger,
etc.  Located in the Northwest US.  Anyone wanting a 'special something'
made for their special Vanagon could certainly contact me for an estimate.
I do not work cheap but I do the highest quality work at a reasonable rate.
My specialty when I worked in the boatyard was yacht interiors and lots of
fiberglass/epoxy/carbon fiber fabricating in the high end racing yacht
arena.
  So if anyone wants to do something like maybe to put a Swan yacht style
custom interior in their Gold Plated Go Westie Syncro and make it from foam
cored teak and carbon fiber...I can do stuff like that...or 'nice' stuff
that won't be cheap but will fit perfectly and be attractive, functional,
light and durable...
  Just an idea and sorry for the blatant spam post.  I've seen other mild
spams on list, so I am guessing a one time vanagon specific spam might be
ok..and it may be Friday by the time this gets on the list..

  You can see some of my work below...Sorry I don't have any of my yacht
portfolio on digital sources yet.
 Pleasure boats are very like Vanagons except they will sink and they are
slower than a diesel NA and cost more (sometimes) than a Go Westie
Resto...grin. So this is a Vanagon specific spam..
