well seems to be a split decision on cut or not, no pun,i will see what the costs to do and if someone is able to do it. this time i asked about cutting. you see at sixteen years of age a shorty van was a neat thing, the auto shop teach said his farm came with a rusted vw van i could have,this thing was good for my plans before i did my 69, the van was missing all running gear, striped insides,only springs for a seat, no front floor. well after a foot + half removed i was not to do this to my 69. to much work+ a sixteen year old needs transport not a van cut in half,way diff van than mine i thought. small rear window, huge engine bay door you could climb in, tiny round lights, solid looking rear shocks. hmmm lesons learned , ask ,research, ask again!. i did save the dash pod, window latches, those little glass lights+a few others which i took to a so cal swap meet in 1980 thinking some one would want old parts here , the mecca of vws not like back home, lane evans -htvws fame said 60 bucks was to much for the lot, no other takers that day. a long way to take this junk i thought. oh well that was then. lessons learned indeed
