Hey, y'all......Well, I guess I am buying another bus. I came out of my office this afternoon to get in my '84 Wolfsburg to go to the post office to file my taxes and there was a business card on my windshield. I pull it out from under the windshield wiper and there is a note on the back, "FYI, I have a 1984 VW Vanagon for sale; Wolfsburg Edition. siezed engine" and a phone number. Is this karma or what? So I called when I got home and I am going to look at it the weekend after Everybus, but told the owner I would take it anyway, as a parter for $500. He said it ran until his daughter forgot to put water in it when it seized. Sounded like a pretty good deal to me, though. So now I am a 2-Vanagon-Household. I don't know about a name for the new bus, but I guess I'll check it out and see if it's worth fixing up. If it is then I'll probably fix it to sell or maybe keep it so's I have an extra bus for camping. That way if one gets sick the other'n will get me to the campouts. The new bus is also blue, but the PO said it is a lighter blue than my current Wolfie, the Sunshine SuperVan 'VanGo'........Whoa, I'm feeling good tonight.........I'll let y'all know how this works out after I go see the new bus. later........Rodney ===== Rodney Kindlund RodKraft Studio (Leather-Art) rodney@rodkraftstudio.com www.rodkraftstudio.com ---------------------------------------------------------- '84 VW Wolfsburg Weekender "VanGo(gh)" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
