I always get a few vw mags like ultra vw and performance vw with the hope of a vanagon in the pages.

This time in issue 37 of Ultra vw with the green bay double cab on the cover not only was there a few pics of a vanagon but it had its own spread. i like some of the mods and not all but I love the fact that a vanagon had 5 pages in a vw magazine.

Tonight I leave to Indonesia with a ring and hope to come back engaged and with white vw mud flaps wish me luck on both!!!!

Nice article, reminds me of Markusdetro4460.com 's ride. Cool to see the Vanagon getting some recognition it deserves.

Good luck with the proposal, more importantly find us both some Euro mudflaps. Wink

Your Beige/Orange Vanagon tugs at my nostalgic heartstrings...

The first Vanagon I ever saw was this colour.
I bought one soon afterward, same colours!!
Beautiful car!!!

Is yours an '80?
Do you have some other photos posted in the gallery?

Good luck in Indo!!!

my Vanagon is and 80. I am looking for a sun visor next for the windshield. I found a lot that looked very vintage which is what I want but it was to long. I think next time i go i will just take the side brackets and make the visor out of fiberglass or some composite.

Nice scores, they will look good on the dub.

Congratulations on the engagement, your wife to be is very cute. I hope she is just petite and not 12 years old. Shocked


I was engaged once (befor I met my current wife) she was 5'1" and weighed 92 lbs, I got the same comments so I hope you know I am just kidding. Wink

These white mudguards are beautiful. Could you give me dimensions of those (width and height)? Do they fit perfectly on Vanagons or do you have to modify them?

Thanks!

Martin
