Does anyone know where either of the Kon Tiki Hotel (Phoenix) VW busses are located or what happened to them?
Here's a pic of the split - there was also a bay window
Any help would be AWESOME!

Off 24th and Van Buren? It’s likely that they were melted down and turned into stripper poles in that neighborhood.
Try getting ahold of the Arizona Bus Club. They have a long history and a few members who might know.
Good luck,

Oh neat a throw back search. I can smell the formaldehyde, asbestos and pine sol already as the desert heat baked the shit out of that place. Rooms that smell like bourbon, cigarettes, melted polyester, stale AC air and lube are hard to come by now a days.
Whats wrong with a GED in stripper pole? Xevin and I went to the same Alma matter there? Yes Matter - cuz it dont matter.
If you find that split - Ill give you a $100. Good luck. _________________
