Wow. You should give walking tours. I'd pay $50 just to walk through there for an hour and take only pictures. Heck, I'd even buy a T shirt, and a bumper sticker for my Van that says "My owner has been to Vanagon Heaven!"...
Nice to know someone out there is doing this.

| Nice collection of super rare trucks there. Love that Sinka with the extension ladder. I can see that thing being put into active service again. |

At the top of my list of places to travel in my Westy is Vanagon Heaven.
Thanks for undertaking this massive restoration/rescue/ curator-ship of these vehicles, and thanks for sharing the pictures vuhvanagon!
Keep it up! |

I thought I was content to have just one…I'm glad this treasure hoard is very far.

good way to build a computerized inventory - crowd source the "field work" & capture the camera GPS info & pics |

Mixed emotions...Glad they're saved but hate to see them wasting away. The fella answering questions was a little inaccurate with his info, but if you're not Vanagon obsessed like some of us are, then perhaps the nuances aren't so crucial. Thanks for posting--it's fascinating to see the place in video.

Interesting. I'm from that neck of the woods.
Familiar with the Duncan family but never heard of this Vanagon collector.
