I'll sell you a whole van that runs excellent and has excellent paint for
$2500 that is an '84 GL.  Then you can sell yours and save money.
Just a thought.

PS Sounds like my 85 Vanagon where almost all the seams and around the windows
are puffing out under the paint.  What evil lurks under there?  The Shadow
don't even know!
