I like this!

That belongs to a buddy of mine, He built it years ago. It is running a carrera engine, This guy seriously pays attention to detail, The engine is dated the same month and year as the Vanagon its self. He also recently fitted the westy poptop. As it was just a regular Vanagon before. Very talented and skilled person.

I'm not a big fan of Vanagons (more of a mechanical dislike than a visual thing) but this is very tasteful. Good color combo, simple, clean. Well done.

I will have to say, the right wheel/tire/ride height package can take the most unattractive vehicle and make it palatable.

Some pretty sweet looking vanagons.
