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 Laughing

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?

I was in the UK and got the magazine. It was funny to read your story there... Since I already followed it here.

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!

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.
