I would like to say at this point that I've found most `Bus people', at this point (I've owned 3 pre-`67 busses at this point (less than two-year period.), and they've all been enormously helpful, especially the split-window bus folks. Heck, I even got a nice oil bath air-cleaner from Clara (sgwl from San Fran is her Pop.), which apparently is a kinda rare item. I had this silly 14.00 paper air cleaner on, that I got from my FLAPS, and she said `That won't do!', and gave me one. (I had given her a bunch of headlight bucket parts previously, BTW.), and I intend to trade with her (or Rain) for a number of years to come. Well, what I wanted to write this about, was the fact that if anyone wanted something from the Seattle area, just ask, and the same treatment would be given to them. I have a FLAPS called Oval's near me, and all their rubber is from WCM, but what I don't quite understand is how they sell it for ~50-75% of the catalog price! ************************************************************************ * Merging onto the information superhighway in one of these autos: * * 1976 Plymouth Volare; 1966 Volkswagen camper; 1962 Ford Fairlane 500 * * Sport coupe; 1960 Volkswagen beetle; 1955 Ford Starliner `vert.
