Sounds good. It may take me a few days to arrange xerography - strictly for hobbyist purposes, of course. [snip] > >Anyhoo, some notable changes (doing this sans book, now): > > After a re-scan, most of these changes came about with the '71 model Here's more: Jumpseat behind driver loses electrical cutout; before '71, area between driver's and jumpseat seatbacks is accessible thru "kleenex"-type slot; later just an open bin. **Great Frisbee storage, spot, BTW! :-)** There's a separate part number fur Kanada, no doubt to placate some bizarre and healthy custom of them blue-skinned folk rumored to live somewhere north of Macon. Table clip-down changes (improved, IMHO). 110V (or whatever else y'all use outside of Leon County) supply arrangement goes from fused to circuit-protectored (anyone got that original VW extension cord -- das Stromlieferungskabel, Teile-Nr. ZVW 222 117 ?). But how could I have forgotten the curtains? By the end of '71, you've lost those absolutely KILLER (sano, too, man) sliding-track curtains over the doors, to be replaced with a three-panel snap-on up front and a cheesy rod-and-pocket deal on the sliding door. Oh pale echo of thy former glory! At least they're not orange yet. IMVHO the earlier curtains are the most _intense_ automotive curtains ever produced. I am very serious and will engage you in a distastrous (and brilliantly puerile) flamewar if you contradict me. Man. Joe, man. PS East-coasters I'll be there in spirit but am between vans. Besides, I've just barely succeeded in convincing myself my fingernails look better without the van, & don't want to threaten this fragile, false reality I've concocted for myself.
