Well the bus made it to both show this weekend. It was a f***'n blast and it drove like a champ. It needs a few things worked out , but as far as it's first time out. It kicked ass!!! I ended up putting original sprint stars on it to fill up the rear fender well. It has a 4' CB beam, 63 spindel with Porsche 944 disk brakes. 412/082 tranny w/ a 2332 and sidewinder exhaust and bug disc brakes in the rear. I drove @200 miles with only minor problems.

you need to deflate the tires to 20# to get across the sand until the pavement is down.

That's funny. You are looking at the backside of the building. It is paved to the building. 30x 32 11ft. height building. Almost done. I put it on the back burner to finish my bus. Why do they call it a building when it is already built? Very Happy
