Is your Subie-van in the paint shop? I'm looking forward to seeing that

Abbey commemoration kind of deal.
Hi Bob & list,
I know, I meant it to be a "little" tongue-in-cheek,
But I've received it every time he gets a post from the list! :)
re: my bus,
It's not in the paint shop yet :(
I've been spending all of my spare time with the interior.
Getting close though...
I'm taking the water tank out of the side, ( where it makes the bus tilt )
& putting an RV forced-air furnace in that area.
then put an insulated flat tank from northern equipment under the seat,
with a coolant coil heater in it for hot water to the sink,
and a good hot shower after a days adventures!
I would take the rear heater out as well, ( leaving ample storage still ),
since I never use it when traveling anyway.
& I would have a 20,000 btu heater in the back for stops & camping.
I always carry two coolers; one for dry food & one for iced food.
So... I think I am going to loose the refrigerator as well.
& have a cabinet shop put locking drawers in that area.
I always need the storage, & all that I carry in the fridge is CD's.
talk to you later,
John C

I may be in northern CA on the first of the month.
I did see their flyer though. I looks like a good time.
I also saw some of pack creek's history a while back.
It may have been through one of you posts?
If I don't get down to the Moab area,
I hope we can run into each other some time this summer!
best,
John C...
