I know the pic sucks but it's all I had, you gotta get a rack like this:

Full length custom rack on my old 75 transporter, it rocked. I think we could fit a double mattress perfectly up there! We would chill out with a few people up there in the back yard on nice nights.


Yeah! Thats what I'm talkin about! The only problem is my garage door is too low for the bus. I think its due to the tall ass tires that are on the bus. Stock size tires and that sweet rack and Ill be good to go...

Christmas came early at my house today. The guy I bought the Loaf from sent me three boxes of spare parts and all kinds of other goodies. I found two OG thermostats and brackets in the mix. I'm still going through it all. I may sell some stuff.

Sooooo....I heard from the guy about my heads. The machine shop is waiting on valve guides and they should be done early next week. Doesn't look like I'll have it on the road by the night show but its lookin good for the transporter show in three weeks.
