I discovered recently that my "82" window sticker is actually a copy of the 1981, misidentified.
Latest standings in the Window Sticker Challenge:
1980 0

I am currently developing the 1982 pages for the www.Vanagons.org website and have no 1982 or 1983 window stickers.
If you might have one, I'd love for you to check and arrange to send it to me. Pretty please 
Thanks Vanagon Team!

I might just write: "bump", but said in a much wordier way:
Anyone have an original new-car window sticker they want to dig out and share?

Yay! Thanks - it will be the first 1982 in the archive.

I have the window sticker for my 1990 Syncro Westy but it's pretty faded, don't know if the scan would be any good. I'll try scanning and adjusting the darkness to see if I can recover.
Interesting side note. My Syncro was $26,245 with destination and options in 1990. If you plug the numbers into the following web site the van would cost only $31,000 today. What a bargain, I'll take two!
And they complained about Vanagons being too expensive back then, look at what you got!
(something about these numbers seem suspect, but I'm not a financial person)

Thank you! That would be great. I've had a lot of pretty bad scans and photos and have gotten accustomed to enhancing them. Start with a good resolution and there a lot that can be done after that.
With the large format of mid-1990 & earlier stickers, you'll likely have to do it in 2 portions and I can stitch them back together in Photoshop. This and large brochures were why I had to buy a large-format scanner for the ones I do. Mid 1990 they switched to smaller sticker format.
Thanks again!
Jim

this one popped up in the classifieds
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=2354986
91 Carat
| Quote: |
| I have an original window sticker from a 1991 Vanagon Carat automatic. This is an extremely rare piece and hard to find in any condition. Would make a great show piece or frame it and keep it on the wall. Van was a Port of Houston entry and sold new in San Antonio. Small imperfections as seen in photos. Very cool item to read and learn more about the 1991 year model. I am asking $150, but I am open to reasonable and well stated offers. I have never seen another one of these. If you wish to insult me or this rare item, please keep your words to yourself. Thanks! |

Thank you! Unfortunately the photo clarity is not sufficient yo be used for options and prices. Since it's listed for $150, I doubt the seller would be interested in providing me a good scan.
I really do appreciate you noticing this and remembering this thread!
