My son and his wife (both graduate students at Cal-Poly San Luis Obispo) have decided to look for a decent pre-1975 VW Bus. Their goal is to rebuild it inside and out, and use it to drive cross country.

So he's looking for a rust-free bus in decent shape. I can help him with engine, transmission, suspension and electrical work. And his father-in-law can help him rebuild the passenger area.

So if anybody knows of such a vehicle available for a modest sum in central California, please let me know.

My thanks.

My Dad and I are available in SoCal if you find anything. He's quite familiar with Buses.

I seem to remember I sold 2 engines about a year ago to a guy that 'flips' buses, let me see if I can find his email.
