Just the thing to keep a farmer dry when using the tractor in the rain.
There are some things that have been done with VW vans that are a surprise to me, but making a bead blaster cabinet is pretty cool and useful, the waterfall in the garden... mighty unusual
a full size 4 door Caprice snow machine is a first.

Isn't this a cool idea? Instead of painting your van, just add this cover to the front, and make faces on it.

Very odd "Give me your best offer, I'll look through all offers and get back to the highest bidder, without really calling this an auction" 4 door chev. Excellent condition, stored since 1970 with various owners that never did anything to improve it.
This seller is likely going to be choosy about the next owners intentions, as they seem to give a damn that someone restore it. I say once you decide to sell it, you aren't interested in how it's treated becuase you've chosen to not treat it the way you intended
they were only asking 6 thou for this solid rust free 30 or 31 model A
Sold at 4 thou about an hour after the place opened, first guy who offered cash is going home with it, and a truck load of great spare parts, including spare roadster body. The wood rims are in terrific condition, and the car was aid to fire up and power the old car along. I believe it too, it was the best deal that probably was there, anywhere. 
1923 Dodge, 3500 bucks 
The sign says hiw wife told him to get rid of some projects, this rat rod project will be yours for about 1650 dollars, and has a for 460 engine
They only wanted 3 thou for the VWFriday, February 11, 2011

The bullet bus (aka: while taking on the improbable, meeting people and finding out that fellow VW fans donate parts)

This 21 Window Deluxe was abandoned and partially stripped in the Nevada desert and then promptly used as target practice for passersbys. After being rescued from the desert, a massive donation project started as bus owners from across the country donated parts and services to get this bus driving again. (that is so awesome! I believe the praise must go to the Samba.com, great VW website)
1)beltline trim
2)front bumper
3)oh shit handle
4)battery strap
5)parking brake handle (bent 90 degrees to floor)

VW fans really love their vehicles, and customize them alot, but I've never seen a bug grafted to a van before, just this one in a movie
