The blue shade of paint isnt even the same as the sticker of the actual van on ice box or the actual cartoon van. If your going to make it the scooby doo van at least get the colors to match, and make everything as close as possable. Im sure theres plenty of us that grew up to scooby doo, I for one can see every screwed up detail.

If they were going to ruin a bus, why didnt they use a panel. Mystery maching had NO windows other than driver front/passenger front. Looks real classy painting "the mystery machine" over windows. Excellent job ruining a 21 window bus.

One question, is this a 21 window bus or a fake 21 window?

thanks for the link. Hope you do well this year.
Us local dubbers are getting all ramped up for the two big weekends. B-J,
R-S, and the other auctions make for interesting times at the Pavilions.

A Vanagon?!  And it was originally bought at a dealer I frequented as a kid!
Too bad BBB is that same weekend... I'd love to be there in person to see how much that thing goes for.

Stop by the Scottsdale Pavilions on Saturday for the big show. It will also have a big selection of VW's. Amongst the selection yesterday and of the handful of ovals and splits that attended, 3 had vintage coffee makers.

That's the Saturday plan. We went last year also, the place was packed!
We don't have these big weekend events here, so I tend to rather enjoy the scene in your erea for my short week trip. They are a blast! |

Some of us Dubbers are going this Friday to park and grab a spot so we will be in good shape for the show all day Saturday and into the evening. Last year I went at 1:45 AM and many spots were already filled.
Or if you're into buses you can head over to Havasu instead. Probably close to 300 buses there. But some will still be at the Pavilions.
