I'm up for another visit :)
I don't need anything big done - bus is running great, But I'd love to have you come by and we can spend the time doing field strategies to keep the bus running while I'm on a road trip.
hmm, You know, I'm actually looking to buy a single cab... Maybe I'll have one by the time you get here! (very doubtful though, usually takes me 6-9 months to find a vehicle)
Also I did get a complete spare type-4 motor that I plan on rebuilding down the road... could be something we can do there as well.

I only need three or four people and we're on. I will likely be in the Squareback with a hulking 091 transaxle sitting in the back. . . .MConverse wrote:I'm up for another visit :)

Woot, that be me! So the trk to Cali starts here? Maybe we can go to the junkyard and see that 73 Square while you are here off 400.Amskeptic wrote:10/27 Sylvester . . . . . . somewhere off GA 400 GA
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

After my visit with Sylvester, I will be able to speak with more assurance. I have to awaken that Squareback from its long slumber and get it road-worthy and sensibly packed...zblair wrote:Colin do you know yet when you'll be heading our way?
