for some reason Hemmings's writer Dan Strohl made an article listing some of the 50s abandoned VW vans, by video link, instead of just letting the Hemmings readers know that I'd collected them long ago

I posted them a with a link named "resurrection of a too far gone VW"  https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/search/label/resurrection%20of%20a%20too%20far%20gone%20VW

the Hemmings article didn't even mention the ones that didn't have a You Tube video, like the one in Greece, and Pakistan. But, since the forest finds, the swamp van, and the helicopter rescue van were all video recorded, there's a good amount of entertainment in those few. 

But I have a compulsion to be competitive, and to do the best and most thorough reporting on a story like the rescued vans... so, I didn't avoid the ones that didn't have a video. Would you? Of course not. Silly Hemmings. https://www.hemmings.com/stories/2022/02/13/volkswagen-type-2-forest-rescue-videos Every article worth doing is worth doing thoroughly
