I'll be passing thru Thunder Bay the second week of June. Maybe I can stop and 'pray' at the temple. Very Happy


Awesome - the 'Vanagon Shrine of Thunder Bay!'

Thanks Jake. The van is wintering in deep meditation in a 40 ft storage container...if it was sentient, the Grape would be fairly surprised to see its new home Smile

The "Grape" came out of storage tonight and fired up first crank. The accusump is pretty awesome as the engine sees 35psi of oil pressure before it even cranks over. It takes the worry of a startup after winter storage.

May be one of the last pics as the van is being listed for sale Sad

Sad, but like my 84 Scirocco (purchased by a young guy who has it back on the autocross track) I'm pretty sure we'll find the Grape a good home Smile. The hardest part will be getting the transaction past my 6 yr old. She is 100% not in favor of the concept.
