I havent been able to sleep as I have been wracking my brains about whether to sell the 914 for a great bus, or not to. I have reached a decision and am going to sell my car. I have a bus in mind and it will be a great candidate for all of the bastardization that I have in mind while still being very solid. The part of the plan that sold me was that a bus can store its own parts. Its like a mobile storage unit for itself. I can free up my much needed garage space (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I know, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thisthreadisworthlesswithoutpics.gif) I will get some as soon as one of my contacts takes some for me. I hope I am still welcome here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I've owned VW Kombis since the split window busses and of all the rear engined ones, I liked my synchro best. However, I bought a Eurovan with the VR6 engine and the MV weekender package and I can't imagine reverting to an old Type3. The Euro (T4) will easily crack 100mph and is almost as tractable as the Synchro. But of course VW, marketing geniuses that they are, replaced it with the Touareg. Which gets terrible gas mileage and you can't get a sheet of plywood in it.
And why bother with Subie engines when you can do this http://www.dls-automobile.de/view.php?idx=...mp;x=49&y=4 And it's for sale for only E29,991.00 Chris |
