Well, I'm bored, so I'm finally getting around to doing this.

Bought the '67 almost 3 years ago.



Transmission rebuild shortly after buying.


Daily Drove for nearly a year and a half. Rain, shine, or snow.



Becoming "The Signature Bus"




Meeting the Original Owner and his family



Rolling Deep into Florida


Time spent at the Body Shop



Paint...


Reassembly...



Getting lowered



Chillin down in Florida




Gotta love the beach



Being Strapped to a Dyno. My 1600 made a whopping 44hp.


VW Dealership in Birmingham, Alabama and rolling home



As seen after Charlotte Transporter Show 2


Had a friend take this picture while we were rolling through Charlotte...


More to come once I dump more money into the bus...

It would be heartbreaking to lose all those signatures, but in the end, it was the right choice. Bet the OG owner was happy to see it still around!

Man i need a split bus :lol: that is one nice bus, perfectly done. That little 1600 was hauling ass. :shock:

Andrew Tue Jul 19, 2005 10:28 pm



Just waiting on axle boots, then I'm pulling the reduction box trans out and swapping e-brake cables, then it's going in...
