I went out to look at this bus a few weeks back. the guy who had it actually though that it was restorable. it is rusty, there are dents on every panel, extra holes everywhere, and there is a huge hack over the engine compartment. you could actually change the axle boots from the rear seat in this bus. it is original paint. the guy was fishing for $400 for the bus. I offered $100 which I thought was more than fair. I think that $200 would get it.

Friends and funtimes at Lake Havasu. Can you hear Willie Nelson singing, "Nothin but blue skys from now on..." Susan in good spirits and great health. T-shirt weather in January indicates the potential for the summer heat. Yikes! In the meantime, WetWesties eat your hearts out.

The property this bus sits on has been abandoned for 10 or more years. There is everything from splits (2 Kombis)to air frames in this garbage heap.

This bus was crushed in 1979. At this time the last splits have their end on the yards.

06/24/03 Ed Hey Josh, chill out man! Some things can't be saved, but that doesn't mean you can't strip a few parts off of them. Next time you see a rotter, pick it up and vent your anger on some resto. hope it doesn't give you a heart attack!
06/19/03 josh yeah really, every time i see a bus thats rusty and rotting and i know that nobody is going to save it, it makes me want to strangle someone.
01/06/03 bart this makes me want to cry really.
01/05/03 Thom And duct tape - don't forget the duct tape!
01/05/03 Flynn Nothing that a little bubble gum and bailing wire
couldn't fix
01/05/03 Dirk Believe it or not I actually managed to find a few usable pieces in there. Until the owner of the yard got nervous 'cause we had snapped a few pic's!
01/05/03 Thom That is one nasty looking bus. I think I need a tetanus shot after looking at these pix...

Here's why it's a good idea to look a little deeper into a motor of unknown prvenance... This one was completely clogged up with mouse detritus. It runs well, and has good compression, but I would have ruined it trying to drive it.

01/26/03 julies presume you had a few SQEAKS from the motor then???
01/24/03 Thom I'd put the new distributor on just to see if it would fire. It did, so I put a muffler on (the old one was long gone) and then pulled the shroud off to check for crap inside, which I was sure would be in there.
01/21/03 Ray OK Thom, this one I'm not getting. There is a new exhaust and .009 on an engine that would obviously overheat in 2 minutes.
