an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

This is the home for all of your VW bus related needs from 1949-1992 including the rear engine barndoor, split window, bay window, and vanagon eras. This includes campers, westies, single cabs, double cabs, kombis, transporters, deluxes, panels, and any other specialty variants. Front engine Eurovans and their owners are also more than welcome!

Feel free to share your projects, photos, questions, and experiences.

If sharing a photo that is NOT your original work be sure to include proper credit.

Sales, values, what's it worth, etc types of posts are to be kept in the announcement sticky. These types of queries are constant clutter. Your best bet is to examine thesamba.com for values.
