    Zack, is there a way to change the color of the text to black and make it larger? I looked for a minute but couldn’t find anything.

    Hmmmm I’m not sure.

    mustag 16″ look kinda cool. But I’d be worried of someone recognizing them.

    Stock size highway radials? BFG 215/75/15 all terrains is what we install on most buses. They do have more aggressive tread, and some side wall tread/design.

    Knowing that your old man was going to paint it yellow, tells me he wanted something bright that would stand out.

    My color choices aside from original grey.

    Forrest service green

    DOT orange

    Turkis(orignal VW color in 61)

    You can drive my 64 bug to salt lake if you decide to bring your truck.

    We’re always getting people bring us old VW parts. Usually junk.

    …but once in a while you find something good. Blue screamer in the bottom of a distributor collection. Paid $6 for it. The former owner was hoping to get enough money to buy two beers.

    Going a little different route with the engine on this one. No dual carbs. Because they don’t fit with the stock gas tank location and spare tire tray.

    …And eventually this bus may get a stock 36hp installed back into it. Doing it this way will make easy to swap later and allows us to keep the spare tire tray.

    I’ve spent some of this time away assembling the transaxle. Some new parts, some NOS, and some good used. I reset the gear stack free play to .002″ and checked/adjusted the ring and pinion into proper mesh.
