Just wanted to say Hi all

A couple of months ago i was looking at buying a Baja bug here in Skagit County, ended up passing on it. Later on got to thinking a Bus would be fun. Long story short now have a 72 tall top and a 77 Riviera both need work and neither are drivable yet. Now in the process of trying to locate a parts bus.

Think these things are going to be fun.

Welcome, where are you at in Skagit? I work in Mount Vernon and live in Bellingham so I am in your neck of the wood.

Bays are a gateway drug to splits.

Looks like you might have found the first customer for your forest find:

Sounds like we are almost neighbors. I am just below Wickersham on 9.

I just searched Skagit.. anyone in the area that wants to get together and wrench together/ let the wives gossip and the kids compare notes of neglect, drop me a line.. I am on Samish Island, and have plenty of room to wrench, play, hang out, etc..

I think you got it backwards. My 1st bus was a '67 Westy. I am now on my 4th and 5th Bays.
