Hell yeah we will be there Jason!!! Are you gonna have Sonnys bus ready??? Will be Epic to see two of those busses on the tour again!!!!!! I would like to do that hard road we took up to gemini bridges a few years ago… but this time in my bus. I plan to be there Friday!!! Are the other Utah guys coming?? Tony and his three man club coming???

I am hoping to have it done, it keeps fighting me. Sometimes I wonder if it just wants to go back up on the shelf and chill like it was. I agree it will be cool to have two back on the road, they are putting a lot into this bus. I found a Taxi  light cover for the old 23 Taxi bus, hopefully they want to do that next.

That road was awesome! Shafer trail may be fun also but need good brakes or plan to drive up it. I may try and go down Thursday depending on the bus.

I assume those guys are coming lol.

I think I will start with a different beam and use and rebuild my shit.. Rusty, have any extra steering boxes? Mine sucks and I bet Wofgang tells me is it toast….

JJ I have a couple Split steering boxes as spares not sure the condition of them. I assume I may have to rebuild the one in the Otter bus when I get started on that project soon.

I have this crank stand, I think it’s genuine VW tool, don’t use it much. Anyone want to give me $50 for it? Or a couple KCW shirts??

I will give you $50 or buy you the shirts you want or both if that tool is still available.

I am game for a camping trip, where is the location? If you want to keep it undisclosed thats cool and we should plan a small trip there. I want to get out camping more this year, and hopefully I will have a bus done by the end of this year. Just need to sell a project car and get some metal work done.

I am hoping next year and that is that last time I say this. I hope have my bus done for this trip, one year project is going to be a tight schedule but I have wanted to go to this for several years. Just need to make it happen and join you guys on the trip.

Nice Job guys! It is awesome! Definitely deserves the Ultimate title. It drives so nice although I stalled it a few times, the shit point is different than i remember with the diesel but maybe not.

That relay is the stock relay for the camper and fridge stuff in a stock Vanagon, it is also used to give a signal to the isolator to charge both or 3 batteries in the current set up. Check out this video from GoWesty, it explains it very well. https://youtu.be/Wh6XUjxB6d0
