Does it have any running gear in this picture? How is the underside? Is there anything else he needs? Way to go!

In that picture, there is no running gear attached to the bus. 2004 was a few years ago....but I believe that we picked up the front end at the same time. The rear end wasn't there ( at that time...but was available ). The underside is in amazing condition...light speckles of surface rust. The bus had been stored off the ground on a set of railroad ties(sp?) I was very very impressed at it's condition. Yeah, the Hairy Guy...that was me....before the hair-loss :-( - DP

"If" he is going stock, I have a tranny from a Nov 56 single that could be donated. With Ken King's new machined nosecone method though, a syncro tranny would make it more drivable.

Well,
I think I've tracked down a proper set of rims for my big tire 15" conversion. Hope to get those blasted and powdercoated in the next month in preparation of 205/75R15's.
Hows everyone else doing?

It's -32 this morning...not including Windchill. So, all I'm doing at this point is Dreaming about a nice summer and reading TheSamba for Resto threads to inspire me. In other news, Speaking of Fred... He's Engaged now... so Congrats to Freddy!! and we now have another reason for a N.U.T.S. get together. - DP
