This reminds me of that scene in blazing saddles when the sherif held his own gun to his throat..threateining to shoot himself
... and the crowd said "He'll do it! He'll do it" this is not a funny April fool joke! |

Alright, alright, April Fools. I was up at 4am due to my meds keeping me awake and figured this would be a good one to try. BUT, you a-holes know me too well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif) I will never sell my car unless I get bored with it and will be selling it for 2 more (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
The thunderbus was one bad ass piece of machinery and I will likely mimic it some day. I like the idea of the H6 suby transplant as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

My bus before it went back together, I need to take some new pics.
Once together and after a couple of times around the block we gave it a 2500km shake down drive to PEI and Nova Scotia (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Edit: Doesn't want to let me link a pic from my blog....if you want to see my bus I guess that's where you'll have to look. |

OK - Now for the overall grade: B-
Don't get me wrong, the idea was good and Mike almost pulled it off, but those of us that follow Dr. Evil's postings here would never believe this stunt for a second. For the idea he receives an A. For his presentation he receives an A-. Being first on the board to present an April 1 prank certainly deserves an A. However, the plausibility of this being a true desire to rid himself of his "cherished" 914 really dropped this down to the B-. Now we all have to wait to see if e gets voted off the island (time for a survey???) Dr. Evil - thanks for laughs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

Comes with a kid too? Score. I hear they go for good money on the black market these days.
I wonder how the top turned red like that. What is it, a 76? A straight swap for your 914 is a fair deal. -Chris |

I hear you, a 914-6 and a Vanagon are the best of both worlds. Mine is 3. 3 subie powered as well!
Here they are next to each other But...you can't AX a bus and you can't camp in a 914. ...which is why, with both at your disposal, ANYTHING is possible! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Sold my first 914 in 1977 and bought a '72 bus - really missed the 914 but loved the bus. Fast forward to 2005 when I bought an '87 Westy and a couple of months later a '74 2.0 914. Best combination of vehicles I've ever had! Now I'm in the process of putting a 3.3L subiesix in the Westy so I can tow the teener....Starship Narpfignugen. Did you know that the Vanagon wheelbase is only 13mm more than a 914? |

Is that a syncro? Either way, nice ride.
