It's a clear Moon Roof, and I think the owner put some deco foil over it.
Then it just got old....

Are all the side seams welded and filled on that van? Is that common practice over there?

There's a much better Dehler interior configuration with a shower that my wife really likes...

My wife saw this one at HoDepot today and got a couple of pix. She was only in the store for a couple of minutes and planned to get more pix after coming out but the van had...vanished, of course.

I spotted Charlie Brown's Westy this morning on my bus ride into work. Sorry for the poor image quality, the bus was on the move.

Found it. I was driving home with a pizza in the dark, in the rain, when I saw a familiar shape out of the corner of my eye so I whipped a U-turn to check it out and found it to be the one the bride saw a while back, still with the teensy For Sale signs ("Honest, honey, I put signs in the windows and everything and nobody's called!"). Sorry about the dark pix. Get it to stop raining here and I'll do better.

Just saw this beautiful synchro in an Aldie parking lot, in Bamberg Germany. It looked rust free, lifted and engine swap.
