Theres a bunch of aircooled VWs around my place now. Guy at the end of the street has a Bug and an early bus. He's been working on the bus since we moved in almost 9 years ago. He's got the first paint on it now and the engine runs so the end is in sight.Around the corner theres what appears to be a parts and restoration shop, they've got probably 10 Bugs, a Type 3, a Safari (the Thing) and a couple busses. I haven't stopped in to say hi yet but I probably should. -Curt From: Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> To: Rick Hawkins Java <macj...@aol.com>; Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Sent: Friday, January 30, 2015 9:23 AM Subject: Re: [MBZ] first car Those VW buses are worth sick money now.
