That Bus should be here at all cost man, would you feel right driving a H2O powered VW to the show when your Bus sits at home all alone?

Trailers are for boats and Ghias. Drive the damn thing!!! I used to drive my bus (61 Panel - 1500sp w/reduction boxes and OG tranny) over the Albernie Pass to Tofino every 2 weeks. Drive it!

OH, THE PAIN.  THE PURE TORTURE OF IT ALL...................  LOCAL BOY MAKES GOOD ON HIS GESTURES AND DECIDES TO DRIVE HIS TYPE 2.  And to think I'll be watching him depart leaving me behind............ OH THE PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Good to hear you've decided to take the plunge.  Some guys would have fixed the bus up enough to drive and then sold it without so much as a proper road trip. ;) ;) ;)  Good on ya OUTKAST....

Take it Marty any problems on that end...your covered....any problems on this end....your covered. I can't make it so if something happens I can locate a trailer and truck and a little skinny guy that hasn't grown to man size yet......Talks a lot of s#$% though.
