That's strange, I just posted something, hit post, but it never went through. Well I'll say it again. "I'm proud to be a member of this club!

I'm going to go through the web sights.

The best thing is I don't have to rush into anything. I worry about getting something to old because I can't get under it or use wrenches. I looked at some of the posted web sights. One was a 1988 VW with 185,000 miles on it. It looked good but the miles.
Nobody around here works on them. I couldn't find the phone number for Mobility vans..

I found that it costs over $10,000 to modify a van to a handicap van. #banghead At that price I'll look for a handicap van from the start.

It'll cost $7000 to put a Subaru in there but you'll have a $25000 camper when you're done! AND it's full Automatic!!!!

Have it towed here, drive home a beautiful, reliable camper

Sometimes I laugh at myself. Here I am saying 185,000 miles is a lot then I'm looking at craigslist at a 1999 E150 handicap van at Chambers st. auto sales in Trenton with 219,869 miles. It realy is a good looking van. I wish I lived closer to Trenton.

From this point on I'm keeping an open mind.

I'm going to call Monday about the red VW handicap bus. The more I look at it the bester it looks. I don't know how much it can lift or if I can maneuver the chair on and off. Then there is the cost of shipping and finding somebody in the area to check it out.

Rich,
Contact Ken with Van-Again (http://www.vanagain.com) in Millville, NJ he may know somebody in that area that can look at it for you. He sells Vanagons & Vanagon parts world-wide and everybody in the Vanagon community has heard of him.
