| 08/04/03 | kerry nelson | Howdy, where is it and is it still available, I'm interested in the project myself. |
| 07/14/03 | Ed | Pull it out of the mud, take it home, and get ready for the horror of "rust free". |
| 07/10/03 | Andrew | Aside from that rear trunk lid, there's no rust on the body or pan (aisde from a few spots of light surface rust). |
| 07/10/03 | thom | Um, Andrew; when he said "Rust Free" he meant the *rust* is free! :)
(rust-free 914) == (military intelligence) |
| 07/10/03 | Andrew | Actually, it's a no rust 914. He's asking $700. |
| 06/30/03 | thom | So how much are the paying you to haul it off? |

| 06/29/03 | BigStew | I've got a '66 just like it I've been, aahh, 'restoring ' for the last 25 years. In other words, it's been garaged the last 20. The interior looks to be Sundial and the roof is identical to yours. Sundial did this as an option on some models but I ain't seen any others but mine and yours. Not even in my many junkyard visits. Good luck with this one. |
| 06/13/03 | Lill' Mona | I recal my ex-boyfriend's similiar van. He drove it through Mexico one year. After putting several hundred dollars into repairs. Sort of what is required for this one. Due to its innept apparatus(the Chassis had more rust on it than a ball park weenie) and undersensitive steering to. It was a 67'. So,after Bernard arrived home to Whistler he had many a story to tell. He met a welder named Weldon from Winnipeg. They worked on the passenger side seats and the doors. Sadly,the van was impounded on Mayne island after it crashed into the Spring Water Inn. The owner was irate and unclothed. He pressed charges and Bernard is the 'Prag' in Kent. I hope your time is better spent. |
| 06/03/03 | Stewart | This is a classic fixer-Upper jobby. Yes,indeed. Bearded lunatics and fuzzy thinkers alike can rejoice and raise a glass of whiskey over this vintage vehicle. Folks may chuckle and pull a jive ass manouvre...with words of disdain and clever forms of regional phrasiology. Vana-Hollics and dweebs can take a windex bath over the costs as well. Plucking your beard with tweasers is less affective than good old elbow grease. A little birdie told me that the new owner is without a job but really relishes the time he has with ole 'Wanda.' |

| 03/04/04 | Gillboy! | Arran, i'd have paid the money dude! I nearly bought one in England 4 1800 which is about $3,400 so it aint bad mate. $600 is about 340 and i'd have definately paid that!! Good look mate. |
| 06/13/03 | arran | Yep time to dust off the cougar photos. Luckily I do have a friend who knows how to weld. It's coming along slowly but surely. Does anyone have info on the raised roof??? |
| 06/06/03 | ED | Honestly, $600 seems abot $500 to much. But I'm from the N.E. and have seen some rough rides revived. This on the other hand looks pretty bad. Hope you have alot of time, money, and friends who know how to weld. Good luck and hey, the last thing you need to worry about right now is the raised top! Get to work! |
| 06/02/03 | Disco Dunn | Bearded, my good friend Arran is currently putting his heart and soul into restoring this vehicle. It was not bought for the purpose of cheating on his lady. He is the salt of the earth and has a fascinating collection of photos featuring you and a cougar twice your age, so cut the guy some slack, will you?! |
| 05/28/03 | bearded | This is the biggest piece of shit I have ever seen. The owner of this must be very proud. For $600 he could have gone to Cancun for a week long bender and maybe even have gotten laid. The chances of getting laid in this thing are zero, even if the girl is drunk he still won't score dude! Two thumbs down! |

| 05/22/03 | Taylor Nelson | This was done over at Homestead HS in Sunnyvale, CA back in 2000 (I think). This bus was in the yard of a shop I used to deliver parts to. The kids bought it, hacked it down the middle of the cargo doors, put a hole in the floor and roof, and then stuck it around the tree as their senior prank. I think it was a 66. |
