So while back at the parents house for X-mas, I came across an old toy i had when I was a little kid..
Fisher Price "Adventure Van"

No wonder why I've always drove Vanagons and was instantly in love with the Deli the moment I saw it. :-D That roof rack in real life would be killer! It even came with a dirt-bike in the back and a Kayak on top of the Van...Too Cool :-) I'm tempted to source out some proper white wagon-wheel rims for the Van..I'd rock those side graphics too! Along with the Van, I also found a little CJ style Jeep from the same toy line....Mitsu CJ3B maybe? There's one for sale up in NC....what a pair that'd make.

Just thought i'd share...it makes me smile and maybe you'll smile too :-)

Toy's in the 70's were just cooler. N'uff Said 8-)

You forgot the parachute that came with the set also. I too remember that toy amongst other vans and led to the same series of vans later in life - Westphalia, Chevy van, and now L300.

Cheers

Yeah, the parachute! :-) Mine was always getting caught in bushes and eventually just ripped. I've owed a bunch of vw's as well. 8-)
