Handwritten Note Lands Man Volkswagen Bus of His Dreams
By the Associated Press
A man has the car of his dreams eight years after he slipped a note inside the win- dow of a blue 1971 Volkswage n bus that the then-16-year- old called his "future car."
Kyle Cropsey of Lindenhurst, New York, received a call
last week from Cris Mead, of Oakland, Califor nia. Mead's father, Cornelius, had purchased the van new and named it Matilda, taking his family on cross-country trips.
The son was cleaning it out after his father's death when he came across Cropsey's note tucked in the
VW's log book.
Cris Mead tells Newsday the family decided to give Cropsey the van, on the condition he update them on its restoration and "go on plenty of adven- tures."
Cropsey, who is 23 and teaches English, says "it was fate."
