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.

Milo is drawing a blank. My wife called dibs, because I named the boys.
She named the Vw's so far. Our golf was named Todd, and she named the bus Argile.

Ooooooo I like argyle, that means you have to put an argyle pattern on the bus somewhere. How did she come up with Todd?

It was just a reaction to what the car felt like. It was tan and didn't stand out. My wife, among many things, is a poet. So far she is leaning twords Vincent. I was thing Conner. ( my street name is conarroe) but I don't like eiter of them.

OK I GOT some time to get to the car. I put a new battery in. cleaned the terminals. changed most of the fuses, (cleaned those terminals too) I get the red light/green light with the key. the hazards work, lights work. the urn signal is touchy AND flakey. the stereo makes no static, but I can here juice coming from the speaker. I can hear the double reley click when I turn the key but it wont crank at all. When I hit the break pedal the speaker crackles.
I am guessing a short some where. I hav't had a chance to get to the starter/ trans ground yet.

I ordered the work book/manual, tires and some of the gaskets...
