HI
I got a pair of seatbelts from a vanagon, I was gonna put them in the bus, I made the brackets to retrofit them for my 78. but I uncovered a rust issue where they bolt to, so I cannot use them.
they are black with the brown plastic covers, all hardware ( nutz and bolts ect..) comes with them. $40
Joe ,
Im in Massachusetts
also, to retro fit them in a bus, they essentially are mounted upside down, the retractable spindle is on the pedestal next to the seat.

I know this has its place on those other sites, so I wanted to start one since, I ,like most get excited when I see a bus..!JOE
so yes I saw a bus this morning.
white early bay ( or lowlight) missing the rear luggage carrier, was at the rest stop on 495 near exit 30 something.
day before yessaday, I saw a painted up bay on rt2 being towed, had eyes painted on the windshield!
2 weeks ago I saw a v-gon double cab on rt2 near Sterling Ma. was camoflauge and was also being towed..looked like they were going to the Irving gas station off exit 26.
anyone???

As some of you know, I work in entertainment. So I am passing this on for a friend.
This weekend on saturday is the Boston Gay Pride Parade, It is their 40th Annual
so they are looking for a vw bus to take part in the parade, they will pay you 200-300 dollars, I belive the parade starts at noon,they want to hang a banner on the side of the bus and have a couple of drag queens in 70's garb ride along with you.
I would do it. but I have a new baby at home ( 3 weeks old now!!)
If you are interested, email me and I will forward you the information.
Joe

well, got another lil munchkin on the way, she will be here in May!
so im thinking i would like to get rid of the hightop and get a pop top
now im talking just the top. westy would be best since the canvas is still made. this way I can have an up and down sleeping arrangement, where as the high top only offers one level, gonna need the extra room!! Rich still got a top lying around?
Thanks Joe

the weekend of sept 13th i will be helping a friend of mine whos an FMBC member drop his engine from a 79 westie so we can replace the fuel tank.
We'll be doing this outdoors in Leominster Ma. on dirt , this will be my second removal and replacement so i got somewhat of a clue.
but i have never swapped a tank. any helpful hints Heloise?
do we need a new fuel filler boot?
yeah were gonna go thru all the fuel lines and paint the tins and stuff while its out..
Can we check the clutch plate to get an idea of whats left to it?
and how?
