New to me Westfalia “Sen”

SEN as I've called my '91 WESTY is a solid GL model that I looked long and hard for. She needed some immediate attention after purchase in July of 2009 and a long list of items that could wait until money and time allowed. The name SEN comes from the abbreviated letters of the date that I took possession of the van. She spent most of her life in Japan from what I can gather so I have chosen the Japanese translation of SEN=Shinkansen (the Japanese Bullet train) or perhaps "Wizard" as (one of) the true meanings of the name. There are several meanings to the word SEN so Wizard seems to be the most fitting. I think she has some sort of Wizardly power to have avoided virtually any serious rust since her conception in 1991...
