When you find somebody who sells Roo Bars let me know. I was Scammed on the Samba from somebody who claimed to make them.

You buy your own bus, and do what you want to your bus. I'll do what I want to so with mine. Pissing off purists one modification at at time.

This is how you build things like Roo Bars if you dont want to pay a bender/fabricator

http://www.mcnichols.com/products/handrail-components/weld-on-elbow

Theyre cheap and so is the tubing.

The hoop uses 4 $10 elbows as does the mount/uprights so $80 bucks in elbows and $30 in tubing. (add $80 for extra elbows if you want it to curve around the bumper)

A TIG welder would make it beautiful but MIGing it would be sufficient

The VWs you can sleep in are more gooder

There are 3 kinds of people in this world, The kind that can count and the kind that can't.
