In pursuit of being "just like one of the minivan crowd" Suzanne & I have
decided to paint her 1976 van powder blue metalic, apply fake wood shelfpaper
(stickers) across the entire exterior side panels, and add a crummy roof-rack
with a 50 lb load limit.

Because, like most VW owners, we thrive on being just one of the crowd... :)
