I've been failing to get this bus together for Shasta for several years now:

It is currently at the Kombihaus body shop and Justin has promised to return it to me (with new used metal welded in) a couple months before Shasta.
Today I scored this for it:

$227 at Pick-n-Pull! It's from a '73 automatic super beetle so it needs a little attitude adjustment before I can use it, but I am so happy anyway. (Turns over by hand, minimal end play.)
'66 Kombi - $500
new used metal - $400
new used motor - $227
Stress-free Shasta - priceless

Im sure there is talk about this somewhere here already, but I dont frequent the forum that much. Major portion of mendocino national forest is on fire including some sections that are part of SST.

Here is a map.

We'll have to see how things look once the fire is contained and out. Worst case, it might rule out an eastern Mendo route for 2013.

Howdy Newts! At long last, we got us a Black Bear, the official breakfast dive of the SST. In attendance for the Grand Opening were Captain American, Pinkie Deluxe, Frankenbus, and Bosco, along with all 5 brave members of the Intrepid Team Idaho: Rachel, Ross, Kris, Brent, and myself.

Do you think anyone brought a camera?

Oh well. Thanks Black Bear for gettin' 'er done, thanks Bosco for starting after sitting 3 months, thanks Rachel for the great idea (and buying!), and thanks to everyone who didn't tell Lou, since it's not my Birthday.

It's never my Birthday.

Ha! Cool.

We've got one now in Milpitas (about 10mi from where I used to live and about 3mi from my work). I even now have a Black Bear coffee mug here at work. Very Happy

Anyone else jonesing for some cold weather and dirt roads?

I was giving a window frame that look like it's a Riviera.

It doesn't fit the hole.

Well, Riviera basically used whatever was on hand in any given week to build their campers.
