 Well I finially found a Bus that I think that I can fix up. After a few attempts and loosing a few deals it looks like I found one. Some of these guys are Nut-zo with what their asking on these babies, so knowing and seeing what their selling for I feel that the one I bought via a distressed sale was a great buy. I haven't had one of these Babies in about 30 years. One of the many problems with it is it's freaken slow-oooooooo. It is a 1967 Splitty, gear reduction boxes etc. But trust me things will change! bus))


I went to pick this bus up and it WAS A RUST BUCKET.. Sale Canceled!   :surrender:

I don't think I've ever seen at bus with a Subaru engine in it... that sounds like a good idea!

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.

 Hey Guys calm down, I may just be very Happy with that old 40 Hp engine. Then again I could always pop a Subieeee Sti engine in there with a large Turbo and push upwards of 400 ponies. But like we all know for every H.P. there is a equal and costly reaction to our wallets. So for now I'm living in the slow lane.

But for now I've gots to many other projects to fix up on the chit wagon. Not to be confused with Jacks P.O.C sorry Jack meant most "beautiful POS".

I actually had a good deal worked out on a nice Syncro Westy Camper but that was one of the deals that fell through. I've always wanted a Splitty, but prices were just out of hand not to mention that almost every Kombi out there is rusted really bad. Then I stumbled on this Bus, and racked my brain to negotiate a killer deal and then to scround the bucks so, when this deal came together I had to rent one of the kids to Mexico for a few years to help fund my habit. I just couldn't say no. To the Bus that was  :surrender:  .. I know that I'm crazy for risking any dollars in these current times, but possession is 9\10ths of the fun, especially when the price is better then right. If I bring another VDub into my neighborhood the neighbors are going to call the VDub  :police: on me.

Hey, Jay we need more photos so that Shawn can tell us what is wrong with the bus ;D ;D
I don't know how fast my car will go.
It's more important that I know how fast my car will stop.

Said it before and I'll say it again- without pictures, it don't exsist.

Don't make me sneak over Jay and take pictures!
