Here is the story
I bought this fine piece of German yard art from a guy named Lucas Wiley in Kent, Washington shortly after we moved to Oregon. He had it stored behind Franklin’s VW shop. That was 6 years ago. As many of you know I like freak hack crap VWs so this checked all my boxes plus I can stand up in it.
Allegedly, this was built a long time ago most likely the ‘70’s. Disco and drugs made people do some dumb shit. The last time it was registered according to the plates was 1983 in Washington. The guy lived in it died at some point. Going by the looks of it when I got it, probably in it. It had a homemade shower stall in it, fold out bed, some cabinets, old clothing, boots and a crap ton of survival books and how to live off the grid pamphlets. He also must have had a hook up on spray foam because thing had it everywhere up to 6” thick in spots.
I will try to find the clean out pictures I took of it.
Anyhow, my goal is to have the metal done, painted so it doesn’t rust (no show car shit, probably thick ass tractor paint) and suspension wise I want to mimic Franz’s mega hatch bus.
John as much as you refused to ever want to see this on the property a couple years ago I am glad you have softened up and are willing to help me build the ultimate camper bus.
