yea i think the first year for the LT series was '74 or '75...  around when
the Golf 1 (rabbit) came out..      when i was in europe back in '98, i saw a
bunch of LT's...some 28's, some newer 31's (with the squarish vanagon looking
headlights).   i saw an older 28 that was for sale on a street in Brussles...
i dont remember the price but i remember it was very cheap..   it was just a
plain box van though.. not a camper..  i dont care what y'all say, i think
theyre pretty cool....ungainly looking, but cool..
in the Wolfsburg museum there was a Syncro LT, doublecab..that was used as a
support vehicle for the Dakkar road rally...IIRC...  that was neat..
