I'm looking at some of the design aspects of the old original VW's, and seeing how I can incorperate them into my van. My Aerostar is very compact, so I need to organize everything so it will maximize space usage.

Thanks for posting the video :-) It brought back lots of memories. I grew up with a 60's VW camper, owned one in my 20's and my daughter fixed one up. They are so nice and simple....but what a pain to fool with the valves!
Hi, Wendy - I had a '76 Type 2 VW Kombi, which I converted into a Weekender. Waldo the Magic Bus was my home on and off for 6-7 years in the '80's. Sometimes I think about getting another one, but for now, my Aerostar is running strong and needs to be worn out first. So many choices....
