yeah, they both have camping gear in the back. the westy is pretty much complete, all i need is the shower thing, the side tent, the wash basin, the roof rack and the covers for the lights, then, i think itll be complete. my 67 on the other hand, has a mutt kit. its got the big table on the inside, the jumpseat, bed, and one cargo door table from the original M.W. kit, and the paneling from my old 64 Sundial. gunna be hard to restore that one, as i only know of 4 in the world, one is rusted, and cut up, mine is a rough example, there was one at everybus i heard that was restored, and Kevin77Westy has a 65 in the middle of a resto. he is supposed to be sending me the templates for the kit so that i can build one.

well, my buses are rusty, especially the westy, but im not Richard, lol. Wink

Sorry to hijack, but, Bruce is selling his stuff? As in selling cheap maybe? hopefully?
There's a '65 standard up there that i need to get if it's still there.

You could have at least done a white spray paint instead of black and red. Then it would be semi-correct. As it is now, though, it's just a total hack job... Wink

lol, Andrew, you have NO grounds to say my bus is a hack job, lol. after all, who is the one who cutt the roof off of a 67 camper and welded up the doors???? Laughing

Adam, yeah, i heard he is closing down or something because the city is getting onto all of his pretty dubs. when i went to pick up my westy, your 65 was still there. and yes, he has lowered his price on a lot of his stuff. you'd better call him up and make the deal before its too late, if it isnt already.
