Thanks for the pointer, I should have known better.  I'm from Cleveland,
Ohio, America and I would be willing to pick up a Vanagon pretty much
anywhere in the US and Canada.  I would really like the 4 wheel drive 7
passenger version.  I'm not exactly sure what the different types of
Vanagons are, can a GL or Westy also be 4 wheel drive?  For example is the
'87 GL in San Jose a Syncro?  Please excuse my ignorance, could you point
me in the direction of the FAQ for this mailing list.  

Thanks
