Got to go on the Cruise for the Cure Today!
met a few more samba people....didnt catch usernames, but they said they were on here...
left the summit of i90 and made it about 5 miles out of auburn all in the red zone on the gas gauge....helped get a bug back on the road (popped ignition fuse, replaced and kept going) got the first rock chip (in mid seattle no less... ) and nearly ran out of oil (2 quarts low at some point...not sure how that happened... )
great day! notch, post those pics!! _________________ MINE - 1978 Westfalia ~ Maisy ~ FI, Hydraulic Valves, Electronic Points, 2.0 (NEED A SET OF HEADS, PM ME IF YOU HAVE A SET)

make time for this cruise. they hardly ever get aircooled's...and seeing a bunch of busses would probably put us right at the center of attention....
beer and camping for a day over there? anyone? (maybe no beer for me )
ANYONE in Seattle area is more than invite...you're requested.

9 am on sunday the 21st the aircooleds will begin to show up, and it will go till around 5 or later, and most of the afternoon usually includes the watercoolers who show up about noonish...

even if i am wrong, and yall show up then, we will start the part ourselves, wont we?
show up early for good spots, so we can get a bunch of bays in a nice row!
nwvwclub puts a good chunck of this on, a email to them would confirm everything  _________________ MINE - 1978 Westfalia ~ Maisy ~ FI, Hydraulic Valves, Electronic Points, 2.0 (NEED A SET OF HEADS, PM ME IF YOU HAVE A SET)
