A black friend of mine introduced me to Vanagons.  He has a love/hate
(surprising?) relationship with Vanagon Westies and at last count, he has
bought and sold at least 5 of them.   By the time I met him, he was on his
2nd Westy and he gave me advice on what to look for and he and his wife went
with me to look at a 91 Vanagon in Connecticut which I now own.  He
purchased his 4th Westy from Karl Mullendorein and I drove him to Karl's
place in MD to pick it up.

My wife and I owe him a great deal of thanks for introducing us to the
wonderful world of Vanagons.
