Official Bay whine about parts and vehicles for sale

I have spent twenty hours this week re-manufacturing and struggling with shit aftermarket parts while instaling my exhaust & heater boxes complete with pre heat tube, flaps in the shroud, etc.

A special shout out goes to Kadron for the pathetic (stock T2) exhaust system and the shit heads who produced the OEM hardware kits where only the six crush gaskets and the two band clamps for the heater boxes fit. YOU SUCK!

Putting one of those together is tricky enough to do right with correct parts, you turned a challenging job into a misery.

Thank you for listening,

Fred

yeah if by "fully reconditioned" you mean missing the rear engine compartment baffle, the entire air filter assembly and the exhaust system, no pop top, no curtains,no details about the brakes, or the electrical ,then...ok.

I agree with Notchboy and Busdaddy...

If you want top dollar for your bus, you need to post a top tier ad. If I'm going to consider spending that kind of $$, I want about 10 times as many pictures.

I wish I/we could know how much these end up selling for.

By New England standards it's pretty dry, though I think there's a bit too much rust juuuust starting to justify his asking price.

Does anyone know the bolt size of the exhaust tail pipe for a 1978.

Thanks!
