Someday, when my pickup is running, I would be happy to do
a swap- you cruse mine, I cruse yours, after some kind of getting-to-know-us
period, everyone carries appropriate insurance. 
	Of course, who wants to cruse around California in a '70 bus pickup?

	For those who have to have toy VWs too, Majorette, the french
'Matchbox'-size toy maker, has a EUROVAN!! I bought one for $0.99 at
the local Toys R Us. Its got a PLASTIC body, and a really stupid
'3d' or 'changing' art inside the windows, but you can pry the body
gently off the chassis, remove the stupid stuff in the windows and reveal
the complete Kombi interior (front seats only). The whole roof is
transparent, and the side is emblazoned "Melting Mel". Mine is black,
and fans of old VWs could paint the roof red.... or black, or white, or
whatever. 
	WAY cool considering I paid $7 or sp for a SUKU Caravelle at
the Kelly Park Bug Show to give to a friend who has a Eurovan.

	Rich Smith wonders how to strap-up a tranny for a tow.
Well, if its a tow with all four wheels on the ground, I'd use a
couple of stout ropes tied into the framework above the tranny. Make
it WAY stronger than you think it needs to be. Chain or steel cable would
be good if you can work with it. I suppose gigantic nylon tie-wraps like 
the phone company uses would work too...
	I would NOT use bungee cords or coat-hanger wires.

	For wreck.autos.vw... I don't find it a convivial place, but
will find it less so when split into air and water cooled camps. I own
one of each, I guess I'm just some kind of nut... :)
