Bay window concerns / Putting 74 Westy full width seat into 77 bus?

« on: December 13, 2009, 03:28:59 PM »

Anyone done this?

We have #3 on the way, so next summer we need to figure out how to get all 5 of us in the 77.

I have a full width Westy seat from a 74 bus that I am thinking I could put in, if I take the refridgerator unit out.

Any hints or suggestions to pass along?

My main concern is how to attach the bench seat on the drivers side.  Do you take out the firewall and drill a hole and put a bolt through the seat bracket and just reach in with a nut to bolt it in?

Any help and/or suggestions appreciated.

Where do you like to go Camping? / Cape Cod Camping

« on: July 27, 2008, 10:39:25 PM »

We just got back from camping on Cape Cod this weekend.  We went down on Friday morning and camped at Shawme-Crowell State Park in Sandwich, MA.

It is a typical state park, nice wooded sites, no hookups, but hot showers (free!) and decent bathrooms.

This place is right on the cape.  You just have to battle the traffic to get over the bridge and you are basically there!

It doesn't get the press of Nickerson out in Brewster (I think), but it was great and as a MA state resident it was $12 a night.  $14 for out of state.  

It took us 50 minutes to get out to the Cape Cod National Seashore visitor center and the beach at Marconi was great!  

You can take the dogs on the beach on the national seashore as long as they are on a leash.  

Regardless, the campground is a great alternative to the RV Resorts if you are looking for more rustic camping.  

That's about it.  Hope it helps someone.

Oh, one more thing, they are open year round!  You can camp or rent a yurt.  Thought that could be fun in February!

I could picture some folks having him make up some LIMBO scripts for the back of our busses.  Perhaps someone might be interested in buying a quantity and selling them in the LimboMart?

I have not affiliation, just thought it's a cool thing that he did.
