As opposed to the $45,000 mini-RV in the background that your parents still won't let you drive.....

I saw that and noticed more than one Vanagon. Great documentary.

I wonder how much they would list our vehicles for... still wouldn't be worth it.

This shot is about 43:50 into Lady Bird. Purely a walk-on, never to be seen again in the movie. The movie was made in 2017 but the setting was Sacramento in 2002.
I wonder how a Vanagon gets picked to be part of this scene?
I googled a bit and found some casting calls for cars. Here's one for pre-1985 cars for a Netflix show being shot in Atlanta, GA. It looks like your Atlanta based Vanagon could make $100/day.

| I did NOT get a screen grab, but in the first 5 minutes of 'A Quiet Place' with Emily Blunt, you see the back end of a T3 parked outside of a grocery store. Sadly, when they leave the grocery store, the camera never pans back to that angle. |
