Hi
I recently found, near my house in Milwaukee, WI, a VW LT35  Motorhome.  This thing is TAll!  Made by westy.  A little longer than a vanagon, but with a high roof.  Diesel powered, as well as an Eberspacher diesel heater.  German plates.  This is my dream camper!!

Does anyone remember the Vixen camper?  Only a limited number were built in the
MidWest.  One was a van only conversion, the others had the "pop tops".  Sort of
looked like a vanagon.  One model had a BMW diesel engine.  If anyone has book
marked the Vixen page please post the address so that we can take another look.
