Hey all I picked up a Bus! Can't wait to be rollin with the crew in my split.

The typical loading/unloading pix.

Loaded and ready to roll...My dad had to drag out of the bus because he said I couldn't ride in it on the way home.

The camera lens is foggy from my misty eyes.

Looks great in it's new space.

Cool, you got it.

No mention of the price? I though it was a nice deal for that Bus especially since you said it was local.

thats a nice one. What area did you dig it up out of. can't wait to see it around. Spokane VW shows coming up. Get it rolling and get on over to show it off.

It has some sort of gas heater thing up front.

The 1500cc still has the governor on it.

It doesn't matter, I just thought it was worth mentioning.

The gas heater looks like an under-dash model. Fairly uncommon as they were usually mounted in the engine compartment. I'm blanking on whether those are an Eberspacher (German) or a Southwind (US) but someone else will know. Or you could take a look.

Very nice find and a great price! You may want to help protect your investment by relocating the in-line fuel filter to another location :wink:
