I like to say that I am bay-curious, although I don't own one. Love those green plaid westys.

So I was snubbed by a Vanagon snob. It hurts. Can't we all be friends? Her Vanagon had Oregon plates, maybe that was the problem?

No worries. I am just amazed that there are so many that don't see that they are all related and you can keep this great hobby alive without both air and water. Yeah there are a lot of air cooled out there, I have 2 air projects myself, but they ain't making them anymore. My Vanagon makes 2 water cooled projects as well.

Today after work I went to Lonnie's house and changed the belts on my 86 Westy and then drove her home to my house approx. 18 miles down the highway! While to most of you may thing less than 20 miles is no big deal, remember I got this VW less than a month ago and it had not run for over 3 years. Lonnie and other good friends, not to forget my father, helped her back into running shape with just 2 Saturdays to work on the engine. My thanks goes to Lonnie and the rest of them. John p.s.
