Ken, the Vegas bus looks great. And Dan is really the glass expert for our group. He handled the install on my vent wing glass on the '59 Westy and did a fantastic job. I'm calling on him on the '57 oval. I don't like breaking stuff like glass or getting the seals wrong. Especially when I know we have an expert that can handle the job. And Dan is certainly that expert. The Vegas bus looks like its really coming together. Great stuff! Can't wait to see it running!

Anybody know what happened to Troy? I saw him about 10 years ago selling new VWs for Kempthorn in Canton. He had a good newsletter back in the day.

Thanks Slayer. It was delivered new in your back yard (San Diego) as a panel van and later converted to a camper.

Finally getting back to to the Vegas bus. Hopefully it will be back on the road soon
Dan (Lurch) recondition the side camper windows. They came out great.
There is nothing like new upolstery by Bill to make an old bus look and feel like new
