3 Weeks Till The Great Canadian!

Hah, i wanted my bus ready for the show a few years ago!... haha

close but i doubt i'll make it this year either. Too much partying this summer not enough working on the project.

Need to...

Get oil return line tapped into pan.
Install motor/tranny
Create rad support and run coolant lines(sorry h20 bastard swap)
run fuel lines
create exhaust
wire the standalone fuel system
remove my bumpstops and install the konis
Interior is getting close to completed - crackin the whip(my mom is graciously learning auto upholstery :P)


At that point I could possibly get a day permit for the show, but i don't think it'd be quite drive-able daaily for a bits.

I give it a 20% chance of a showing ... damnit, still need to redo the rear poptop(since the towtruck driver let the other blow away :P)...

I'll show thou either way... no other acvw to bring thou :(... sold my beater busses.
