And so I did.
Actually, it's a dime I found on the ground under the van, so it must be some sort of epiphany. |
Brilliant! I need to find a 2011 dime now. _________________ Marius Strom Otto: 1988 Vanagon Syncro Westy Camper

I was going to do that but when I found the dime under the engine I figured it was a sign of....something. _________________ 1984 Westy with tencentlife power! |

Uh-oh, I can see my branding effort is going to be an uphill slog. I guess instead of stickers and t-shirts I can just send out spare change? _________________ Shop for unique Vanagon accessories at the Vanistan shop:

I'll supply my own dime, but I still want stickers and t-shirts. _________________ Marius Strom Otto: 1988 Vanagon Syncro Westy Camper

I've found plenty in the vans I've parted out! Filthy money but clean profit. |

Funny you said that, my other online alter-ego was "fortydollarbill" (FZ fans, arise!).
Guess I oughta find some hi-temp cement and stick a dime to the engine blocks. If I get the right kind that could be my overheat telltale (sorry I can't warrant the damage, man, you dropped yer dime!). _________________ Shop for unique Vanagon accessories at the Vanistan shop:
