Just thought it'd be interesting to see the variance
Maybe votes for the Kombi & the Standard should be combined (ie 11-window buses)
I'd like to have enabled 2 votes each, so you could put a second choice too

1. Panel (Delivery Van)
The original

2. Single Cab (Pick-up)
Still seats 3

3. Kombi
With Seats but no interior trim

4. Standard (Microbus)
With seats and interior trim

5. Deluxe
Loaded

6. Ambulance
Pricey

i think barndoor owners tend to vote for the vehicles they own. i'm no different. i own those particular models because i wanted them.

standards and panels. i particularly like rear hatch buses.

I don't think a Kombi and Standard should be combined, they are different and each have their own positives.

Wed Dec 27, 2006 3:42 pm

I will take any one of them at this point...........

Wed Dec 27, 2006 3:43 pm

Righto O Everret, me old Chap!

For me a Standard is a Deluxe!

My favorite Barndoor would be a zero miles, perfect, untouched, like the day it drove out of the show room, 1950 Barndoor, model irrelevant. :D

I like Kombis. The earlier the better as far as I'm concerned.

Actually, I prefer Barndoors that don't drive.
