I also hopes he gets the money, however, I don't understand people who
customize a van the way they think it should be done, and then try to sell
it for a ton of money.  Just because they sunk a ton of cash into something
doesn't make it valuable or even a "dream" anything.  I think as time goes
on, the unmolested Vanagons and Westies are going to be the ones that are
the most desirable and these other hybrids, are going to be the second
class citizen that people wish they hadn't "pimped out".

Just my opinion.
