sorry to hear about the hit and run. Whoever did it will get theirs x2.
Good luck. Maybe I'll see you over there. Just make sure to wear your samba shirt everyday so I'll recognize you _________________ It's not how wide your hatch is, it's what you do with it.

bad news re the bus being hit, but if you got this far you can fix that too. Good luck in afghanistan to you as well (and all of the guys over there).

JEDI PIMP, that is great news. I can't find that magazine other than buying a subscription which I think was between $150. and $200. a year but if anyone knows how I can just buy this one PM me or post.
JEDI PIMP is it possible to just get a scan of your article?
Why is this magazine so expensive is it because it is UK only?

Have you considered simply starting with a nicer bus? I don't know what your skills are, but the race is easier if you can see the finish line. If you are not a runner, don't start off doing a marathon. |

I was in the UK and got the magazine. It was funny to read your story there... Since I already followed it here. _________________ 1967 Split SO-42 Dormobile |

So how's Kandahar? (if you are there yet) If you see my friend Ben Webb, smack him upside the head for me.
EDIT: Just read the news. Hope all of you guys are ok. All they are saying is that Kandahar was attacked. Let us know you are good! _________________ 64 Type II

I now have a copy of the magazine! However I dont have a way to scan it. I really liked how they put it together and its actually funny to read. If I can find a way to get it posted on here I will.
Take it easy all and thanks for the posts! _________________ 58 Binz DC #151 "Nacho"

I'm in the process of bringing home my first bus. It's a 66 Westie and in a similar condition. Hopefully I will have it home by next weekend. This thread has been a real inspiration. Nice work!
Here's mine in the field. It's been parked since 1996.
