Over the years, we’ve had a few “green” VWs here at CC, from those in that hue to some with actual greenery growing on them.

That Econoline front section looks like what you would get from a junk yard to replace the nose of a wrecked one. Just pull the windshield and cut the top section off through the windshield posts, then cut through the floor from door to door and replace the complete nose dash and all.
