Well, we're getting close to the fateful date (had the midwives do the
home visit tonight), and my wife has put me in charge of shopping for the
kid's car seat(s).
At the moment, we're planning on getting two, one to go in my Vanagon, one
to stay in her Toyota. The good news is that we've already inherited one
seat, a pretty nice convertable model made by a now-defunct company called
Renolux. That one will probably go in the Vanagon, so we are shopping for
a seat to go in Jane's Corolla.
I'll be attaching the kid seat in the middle seat in my 85 GL till I get
my Multivan interior. Then, depending on the stability, I may be putting
the kid in the rear-facing seat behind the driver.
That said, what kind of advice do you all have for transporting kids in a
Vanagon? Any recommendations on brands/models? (the Renolux is a great
seat, but the company is out of business. I also like the idea of a
convertable seat that can handle an infant and a toddler)
Thanks,
Bob
