Here's my 77 Westy and my 79 Panel (behind the Westy).

Here's inside the engine bay of the 79 Panel, the engine is running.

Santa's bus heading to the workshop to pick up his german aircooled toys for all those good boy's and girl's. If you've been bad this year you won't get a lump of coal, instead the aircooled elfs have decieded to give the bad boys and girls GEX heads..... Laughing

edit - Hey 56Ovalbug - that's one way to keep the heat soak low. Wink

I've never had a problem with snow getting in the vents of my Bus in the wintertime. Considering your engine is AIR COOLED and the air to cool your engine comes from those vents, blocking them off is not a good idea at all.

Duuh... I suppose I should have that a bit harder about that one. Laughing

Well, no pics to post (no digi cam)

But yesterday we got about 5 inches 'o snow.......no plows on the dirts roads for that.

I drove down (7% grade) to the highway, and up to the town. (no issues)

On the way back up my dirt road, I was stuck......tried 3 times, tires spinning in the mirror.

I went back to the bottom of the hill, dropped my rear air presure to 27psi, and drove up the 1 mile hill like I had chains on.......

just sayin'

p.s. tire pressure matters

Don't believe the Global Warming hype. It snowed in my Sunshine state last week. http://www.usatoday.com/weather/news/2006-11-21-florida-cold_x.htm

And they said we would be trashed by Hurricanes this year also, and hurricane season is over. Scientific guesses. That's all predictions are. No snow touched my bus, but it could happen. Even in FL. Very Happy
