Divorce Sale! Bus Parts - Portland!

Post by dhoch14 » Wed Feb 20, 2013 2:14 pm

Long time no talk friends.

2012 brought me a divorce and a home sale! :rr:

So it's time to clean out my garage. Here is what I'm thinking:

I'm going to bring all my parts (7+ years) to the Lucky Lab next Monday the 25th. If you want something, take it and donate it to my lawyer funds. I don't plan on leaving the Lab with any parts! whatever is left is fair game!

Here is a list of what I know is in my stash:

* 73-79 rear bumper. straight.
* PDSIT carbs. Complete set. Troy, you still want them for your 72?
* Spare parts box for a road trip: (plugs, dizzy, coil, valve covers, etc.)
* Westy interior parts: side-table + fold-out rear seat storage + table.
* Jalouise window screens
* Buddy Heater - propane
* Copious amounts of hub caps
* Side door panels
* Body work hammer/tool set
* Sound deadening material
* Misc other parts: canisters, hoses, distributors, coils, carb parts, Bentley, Muir, automatic tranny gaskets, heads, heater boxes.
* Leftover parts from my rebuild type IV rebuild.
* I also pulled a bunch of parts off a 411 that are in the boxes.
* Loads of tools: helicoils, dizzy strobe, etc.

Looking at the PDX peeps to offload!

Sorry to hear, man. It'll be good to see you again even if the circumstances could be better. I'll drop a line to Troy over on FB, he might get it sooner over there...

Damn, sorry to hear That! Well, once you are back on your feet time for a new bus to get some driving time in.

Women are a dime a dozen but a nice bus comes along once or twice in a lifetime.

It's all good fellas. Congrats are in order.

So are there going to be enough of you fine fellows at the Lab tomorrow to bring my parts? I'd hate to haul them if it's going to be me & hammie. I mean, I like Bob and all....
