I agree. I have owned 2 buses with pin stripes a '72 with custom stripes and the champaign edition with "original" (did VW ship Buses with pin-stripes?) and I must say I like the 77 better. It's the authenticity. Like a snapshot from the past century. James '73/'77 Westfakia '78 Super Vert __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
