Near Sunset Crater which is by Flagstaff, AZ
That wall is called the Chief in Squamish, BC. Weston, Malia, Emilee and I lived in the Vanagon for a month on this trip…. Together… haha crazy
Near Smith Rock Oregon. This is where I cracked the exhaust in half and it sounded like a Harley all the way home the next week…..
Typical scene when driving with the old engine…. Always getting passed by semis…..
Near Joes Valley Resevior, UT
Emilee and I on our first date. Near Ouray, CO
Emilee and I climbed some towers in Castle Valley for our 2nd date
When I was trying to climb some towers near Hanksville, UT and hit a very muddy section… Dug it out a bit and winched it out (luckily the winch can attach to the rear hitch) Somehow those bushes in the background were able to pull the beast out. I dont think we would need the winch in this situation anymore….
Near Hanksville, UT. The best Milky Way stars I’ve seen in the US
Indian Creek 1hr southwest of Moab
Oregon National Forest outside of Portland. On the way to Squamish BC
I’ve hiked the chief, it’s hugely popular for climbers but there is zero chance i’d do it
hell I did not even like being on the top of it
great pictures
Nice memories there Cole!!!!
Looks to me, like an engine is going in soon…. ๐ย ย Hoping for an epic next 2-3 days….. ๐ย ๐ย ย and for the completion of the one and only Ultimate Vanagon project!!!!!!!ย ๐ย ๐ย ย ๐
Luck is when preparation and opportunity meet.๐
Looking forward to more memories. Gonna be an awesome rig! Excited to check it out this weekend ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
Way to get stuck! Nice work Cole.
It was BURRIED. To the frame. wouldโve been a 12 mile walk back out to get cell service…. glad I was able to winch out! Haha
Jason built you a nice rig.
I see why it was used-up & tired when it arrived here now. haha
Check out the the race capture ap. I have installed the mk3 unit with the ECU to read all senders and display engine information on your phone.
It takes a minute to build your dashboard, and get set-up. I’ve only had a little time to mess with it.
This one? Ya, Jason killed it. What you guys have done after him is what he wanted the finished product to be. He is psyched to see what KCW has done to it. Going to be ultimate for sure ย
Yep thats it. It uses a CAN system that I had little trouble getting set-up. Probably just need to read more tutorials and stuff. It has a lot of options for race track timing stuff. Most of which we’re not using.
Friday night? Saturday morning?
Probably get to KCW around 7 Friday night
motor in… I bet it drives by the time you get here…. ๐
Luck is when preparation and opportunity meet.๐
Everyone cross their fingers and toes today…ย I’ll bet this Vanagon will be alive again today!!!!!ย ย Thanks for seeing it through to the end Franz..ย ย That was quite a kick in the balls 2 weeks ago!!!!!ย ย Problem Solver.. Franz is one of the best out there…ย ๐ย ๐
Luck is when preparation and opportunity meet.๐
Beautiful pics! I got to get out there and see it for myself one day.
Franz has it all sorted out…. I think he is waiting for Cole to bolt the last few items down, then Fire it up….. ๐ย ย Cole.. You must be prepping to leave… ๐ย Your not Driving Emilee’s Bay are you???ย ย Does she have tripple A?……… ๐ย ๐
Luck is when preparation and opportunity meet.๐
