What makes it really crazy is that the "Volkswagen" Script for 67-79
Beetles, 66-74 Ghias and 73-79 Buses are in plentiful supply from thye
OE manufacturer in Europe.  For every one of the Vanagon specific
scripts sold (or asked for), hundreds of the earlier model scripts are
sold annually.  The law of supply and demand :(
