Subject:86 GL with Black Interior
From:Kurt Grotz
Date:Sun, 27 May 2012 11:09:41 -0400

It kills me to do this but I am planning on selling my trusty 86 Flash
Silver GL as I don't have space or funds for three vehicles.  After owning
a 79 Transporter (Santa Bus cause it was red white and cold in winter) ,
 84 Vanagon GL  (Jackson cause it was Brown) and now Rexmobile (it was
really my dog Rex's van) ---- so after having a vanagon continuous since
1988 I finally got my Dream Car --a 87 Westy.  I named it Sky cause the
Dove Blue looks like the sky.

So one has to go and it is the 86.  As much as I love the Van and modified
it to be a camp mobile as much as possibile I will say I love the pop up
and look forward to camping in it.

The question I have is I was told once that black interior is pretty rare.
 The archives pointed that out in past discussions.  I personally love it
and will miss the black and silver combo.  Does anyone have any thoughts to
any added value the interior might have before I start marketing on either
craigs list, samba or ebay?    I have started a photo collection for your
all inspection.   More images and a video of it starting and running are to
follow - as with details.

Enjoy the black in these images and let me know any thoughts.

Kurt
