Glenn back in my hippy days (10 yrs ago) I always wanted to jump in the vw bus and head down to one of the off grid, not so legit spots. Not sure if that still exists down there as I think everyone in North America has figured it out now.

 

Now you have my curiosity up, lol!


haha Nate, just this last weekend in the park here was a gathering of old VW buses from all over the country! There was a lot of classics and some modified. One bus had a part of its roof cut out and a bug top sticking out of it, lol. Someone was talking about a place like that somewhere around Phoenix. Not sure if its still there? Not a very good picture with the sun NOT behind me.

 

Reminds me of this rig I saw a while back...

 

I agree Glenn! Too short! If we can put together an RRW of sorts, we are in!!

I'd be down!

I'll bet they do. The place is saturated.

 

We are Amarillo tonite. Sorry, I just saw your post this eve.

 

Good trip today, but LONG. Whitey is liking being pushed and stretching his legs. MPG so far...

Best is 17.9 and worst is 15.5.... The difference between 75 and 80 mph if you can believe it.

 

I'm wondering where your cutting down south? If you were close I was going to see about sending some wheels out for Glenn. He wanted me to beam them but we don't have that going yet lol.. Not a big deal I have a family member that makes the trip a few times a year. I just missed a buddy that works turnarounds in cail by a day.

 

We'll be headed to Dripping Springs from the DFW area. PM me your number if you would.

 

I finally found a pair on feebay, thanks anyway I appreciate it!

 

Ok Thats good
I just talked to brother in law and he said he would. If you need anything else I can help you with just Holla

 

I sure will, thanks for thinking of me.

 

Glad you guys got it figured out!

 

Not sure where your travels take you next but some of the best BBQ in all of the expanse of Texas is an hour or less from Dripping Springs. Franklins or micklethwaits in austin and blacks, smittys, or kreuz in Lockhart.

 

I've been wanting to go to Franklins for years. I keep hearing it's a LONG wait, but we may try this time around. Thanks for the heads up!

In a side note, I have some much needed down time in this warm Texas winter weather. Here is a photo of one side compounded. Can't tell much, but it is MUCH whiter...LOL!!

 

Had a pretty good and productive day today. Jarrett came over to the house to help me hang new glass on the front doors. Man they turned out great! No more cloudiness. Even more important though was just getting to hang with Jarrett and do truck stuff. He is one stand up dude. The beer was good, the company was good, and the glass looks great! Oh, we also hooked my truck up to his AE and it passed all tests, so that was a bonus. We got his CC fixed by replacing three bulbs as well as getting all of his brake lights working. Anyways, that is it for today. The visit is going well and I'll be seeing Travis on Tuesday. Stay tuned!
