Parents had a '64 Deluxe Micro Bus that had a large sun roof that was very handy for hauling things like refrigerators and doors as you opened the top and let the cargo hang out the top, didn't even have to take it off the dolly. When they remodeled our house they took all the seats out, lined the inside with cardboard appliance boxes built a ramp that went from the house window to the sunroof and filled it full of plaster, lathe and other construction debris, yep it was pretty handy. I made a couple of months in a '66 standard Bus but it dropped a valve and after a March week end in Michigan with only a Honda CL175 I got my bug back together and never fixed the Bus (really should of). I got tired of being cold and about a year and a half later I bought a Renault LeCar (Clinton County Michigan was known for really bad roads, the LeCar was the only small car I found that dealt with the chuckholes), this was maybe not one of my best automotive decisions, heck it was probably an automotive indiscretion. The Renault got me through college before it started having problems(yes I know real surprise right?) at about 3 years 48,000 miles. Since then its been a handful of new and used Fords, a 1/2 ton GMC that I suspect had about 270,000 miles on it before it came to my door, a new Honda that's been with us for 26 years and 300,000 miles, for the last 10 years a Dodge Grand Caravan (the wife likes it) and a Camry inherited from my mother and almost immediately given to a daughter(okay it was a year, for me and vehicles that's not very long). I still longingly look at VW buses and think it'd be fun but if I had a choice it would be a Westphalia with the wasserboxer (water cooled)engine or a Subie conversion. They were a little more civilized and SWMBO has indicated she might be game for week or so long trips under such accommodations which is funny as I pegged her as a class A motorhome kind of gal. Of course for a while I had a rusted out '66 Olds Toronado and always thought that 425 Olds and TH425 transmission would of worked well in the back end of a VW bus but I wasn't sure I could handle the wheel stands.
