First, let me say to all the helpful people on this list 'thank you' for all of your information. Second let me say........ I GOT IT---I GOT IT Yes ladies and gentlemen, you are talking ,er--um-- reading the message of the proud owner of a 79 Westfalia. I got the guy to give her to me for $2700 (after lots of haggling) and she is worth more pennies than I paid for her. (BTW. why is she/it a her?) So now my job is a sanding and a priming and a painting. The overall plan is to have it painted like a huge dive flag, but I am not sure If I will yet--kinda leary of the jeers I may get. Oh as the the location stats add me in there somewhere. I believe that makes 2 or three from tennessee....Maybe we could break that down into cities :). Someone had mentioned having instructions on patching/recontitioning the canvas camper top, it has been a while and I nolonger have the post so could I get some mail from that kind person. Here is a question.... The propane tank on the camper has never ever been filled..... does it need some kind of inspection like a scuba tank would or is it ok? And again thanks for all of the information. Rick. P.S. I am in the process of writing a gif to txt converter, this may help me out in the ascii art department as I am horrible. _ |_| <- this is the best pict of my bus I could get on short notice. :) ' '
