Ok I have some info.
Tito's number in Mexico 011 521 415 1016606 he speaks English.
The Wild Westerner owner 011 521 553 665 1487 he may not speak English.
The engine was changed to a 1.6 because no one there is familiar with the 1.7 and the 1.6 is a common engine in Mexico.
Location Naucalpan de Juarez just outside Mexico City.
facebook search words Bazar Combi
Keep us updated.

Sweet...
No rust that I can see. Do we have anyone interested, if so we need a serial number.

Same as the one from Bozeman awhile back? Also, the listing states Williston (ND?) but the photos look more like Western South Dakota or Eastern MT. I wonder where it actually sits?

Hey gang, been a while since I've posted here, was focused on finishing the restoration on my '71 bus which is now almost done. So I've been back working on my Westener finishing up all the body work and now in the painting process. I decided to paint the blue stripe rather than apply a vynal wrap as it will look much better and won't fade over time. More to follow.

A few more photos, and a photo of my '71 and the custom dash panel I made that fits over top of the original molded factory black plastic material. I modified the dash in the center area to accept a modern day head unit with all the technical gadgets everyone wants and needs these days. Going to install this dash cover in the Westener as well.

WOW !!!
You certainly are an inspiration when i retire to redo the two I have again.
Without counting we must be getting near 80 Wild Westerners still in existence in various conditions.
So in an earlier post where I said " I have a Dream" to have a Wild Westerner in every state is actually a real possibly.
For some that cannot connect the dots I'm currently in Alabama. (pun)
And the band plays on

Oh! I got a Christmas present for members of the Wild Westerner Club!! (Well, at least the first 30 or so.)
If you've got a Westerner (I would prefer that they go to "Club" members because I only have so many) and want one, send me a SASE and I'll mail you your present.
I've put my address in my profile, it is broken up in a couple different lines. Hopefully having to click through to see it and having it broken on a couple lines will help protect me from "robots." Just click the "Profile" button below and you should be able to figure it out from there.
