Sunagon

==Description==
The Sunagon is a Third Generation (T3) Volkswagen Type-2 Transporter, made from 1979-1992. In America it was called Vanagon and the pun "Sunagon" came from the high-raising roof "to the sun". The casting is a very special adaption from the "Sondermodell" Joker in the early-80´s.
The original casting was not used in the USA anymore after the 1983 "Extras" release, but it continued to be issued in Mexico during 1985, 1986, and 1987.  A new, retooled casting debuted in 2011.
