We had a great turn out yesterday considering it was short notice and in the middle of winter. I believe we had 13 vans out with a good mix of buses, syncros and vanagons. Thanks to those who travelled a long way (by Victoria standards). The weather was awesome with lots of sun and it was just warm enough for short sleeves.

I will get some pictures out shortly and will be sending another email out to gather everyones email address for a mailing list. It would be great if we could do this monthly and share some knowledge, parts etc.

One last thing, there was older gentlemen who came out without his van, he said he has a 85 Westy for sale, if you can get in touch with me I had an email from someone up island looking for a good used van.

Thanks again,
Ken
