> To the bus list members,
> First introductions for the newest members of the
> list. My name is Aubrey Allen from Northern
> California. I own a 1959 Volkswagen Type II
> Transporter Crew Cab Pick-up. I have modified it by
> installing a super bug's transaxle, a 1600cc
> singleport with stock VW Type II exhaust, 14in bus
> rims, with 205/75/R14 BF Goodrich tires. The body has
> doors from a newer bus, angle iron reinforced side
> gates from the previous owner, and I unbolted the
> front window frames to make them removable for those
> warm California days. The rest of the body is stock,
> the rest of the suspension is original with rebuilt
> reduction gears.
> Second the question. This winter I am in a
> position to restore my truck completely. I would like
> to install 18in alloy wheels. I have found the rim I
> like. The tire I have picked has a load rating above
> 1576 lbs. The wheel and tire shop will sell me the
> rims, but they are a Chevrolet Car Bolt Pattern. They
> are willing to sell me the rims and tires for an
> estimate around $2700.00. My question is therefore,
