Hope to meet y'all at Fredricksburg, we'll be there in the bus selling mugs, posters and stuff.

Gostros- The shop in these pics belongs to a friend of mine. He asked me to not "out" him when I asked him to modify my trans mount. On a completely unrelated subject, I would say that if you need parts for a bus go to http://www.bustoration.com, 'cause I hear the owner kicks ass.

Wow, I hope the car and occupants are ok.

That reminds me I have to get my fire extinguisher recharged before we leave friday- I had a little "incident" when welding some brackets to my middle seat for seatbelts. :shock:

Just a electrical burn and a busted ego, spare headlight switch, spare high beam flasher relay, spare hood and no damage from the wheel falling off(stayed on the hub, i think the fender kept it from flying off).
