Hey there folks. I was cruising the site and got all sentimental for the short time I was able to spend with ya'all. We are settled in up here near Providence, RI and all is well. The bus has a two car garage all to itself and is currently...well, waiting. I got it up here safe and sound behind a U-Haul and have since parked it and started on the slow revive road to spring. I have assessed the engine with an expert and we determined that I am good to go for the time being. The bus is off the road for the winter and I am getting a stock dizzy and some other stock air intake components together. Sticking with the stock. I have had a full on tutorial on the dual Solex and feel like I have some chops now. I am planning on having the carbs rebuilt by the fella in GA soon and will be getting new tires, shocks, and brakes on these off months as well. I pulled the rear window to address some rust issues and will do the same with the windsheild soon.
I hope all is well with you folks and GA is warmer that we are here.
Have fun at the X-mas parade! _________________ "A vision without a task is a dream - a task without a vision is drudgery- but a task with vision can change the world."
