I like that when I look at the bottom to see who is viewing this thread, I know and have met 5 out of 6 of you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)



Yeah and those 5 have all probably worked on this abortion of a vehicle (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

Its cool. We will need to rethink things if your registered vehicles equal mine, though. Counting the trailer and the eventual BMW we are at a 4:3 ratio. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

Honestly, so long as I can move my stuff around, Erin does not complain too loudly and the neighbors don't start bugging me, it does not bother me.

Why hello sir. Nice work, I'll be interested to hear how it does in the 914. Got a head temp gauge on it? Oil temp? Curious what the temps are like pushing the bus around. Are you running 2.0 heads?

I bit the bullet and got a camper special for my westy. Expensive, yes, but it was the best compromise of time off the road and cost. I generally cruise in the 70-75 range unless I am by myself. Any faster than 75 and the passengers start to complain about noise! Gotta do some insulation work . . .

East Coast Camping expedition next summer?

Still in the process of getting everything dialed in. I'll let you know the temps once all set. Now I have an itch for a new set of gauges alla Evil. Damn that looks good and I have a set, but not the Evil touch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Camping is a damn good idea. Planning on a few trips this coming year. Should be booking a week in Montauk in the next few days/weeks. Hither Hills on the beach, it's an awesome place. Books up months in advance. Visitors will be welcome.

Also want to head to the North and West within NY state for a multiple stop trip.

Flanders is another not to be forgotten

Mike you gotta get that bad boy rollin under it's own power!

Sure, you want to work in a Commercial/Industrial Hardware Store starting at about 10-12/hr?? I didn't think so. We may get to see you next summer when I drive the teener to the East Coast after I retire, always wanted to do it and I'm gonna. Many folks to see and visit, and I want to get to see the Canadian Maritimes, maybe catch the Targa Newfoundland or something....may squat in N. Mass. for a month or so to see the autumn....etc. As long as my 201K doesn't become a 101K..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Alright you two homos, take your love fest off line and stop messing up my build thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/KMA.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Here are some pics I had not posted yet. Between interviews and rebuilding gear boxes I have had no time for the bus. Hopefully soon......before the snow falls. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad2.gif)

I am using a few things. The black sheets are a brand that I forget and the wrappers are at Zach's. The silver stuff is Fatmat and I am putting in some silver bubble wrap over that.

Nice work. Gonna be quiet in there. I have opted not to install any in mine. With 3 kids it gives Liz and I a nice ride. On the highway we can only hear each other and not the kids.

So, I managed to get away for a few hours yesterday to move my bus out of Zach's garage so he could put his car in there. The sticking point on this conversion has been the engine tin as I wanted to make an elegant set that mated perfectly from the engine to the original curvy-assed lines on the bus. I hereby officially concede that I will not do this. What a PITA to do and it would take more man hours than the rest of the damn bus. So, I am giving in a cutting the drivers side flush and making simple, effective, quick engine tin....when I get time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I will just be using 22GA steel, cut off disks and some tin snips. All me, no need for help, no need for an engineering degree. I feel better already (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The next step is to drop the engine again so that I can finish up the engine bay, mounts, etc. Then install the engine, make the tine, put the wires, cables, etc up to the heart and then turn the key and poop myself.

Ya, I have been thinking about that. I think I can make a work around for it. I dont want to cut and move it. That would look suspicious.

Joe, you are never free to help out man. You have kids, dogs, wife.

How come you people are not working on and updating this thread???? I need my daily "reading room" material to keep updated in the world. Retirement and cold weather are pure hell when you do not get the "proper reading room material". Get back out there in the "cold weather" and keep an "old man" happy!!!

Seriously, enjoy reading the thread and the accomplishments that are being made. It should be noted that these activities are being done by people with outside, pressure commitments. I do enjoy the antics and comments to those who are accomplishing their work, education, family, and hobby involvements.

Now, get back out in the cold (probably snow by now) and get me some more "reading room material".

In other words, keep up the good work and providing us "outsiders" with entertainment.
