September 30, 201015 yr Heading out at o-darkhundred if you are going I will see you there, if you are not going I will post some pics when I return home. Here are a couple of pics of my ride getting loaded, this is a 1971 VW bus and it will haul 2000 pounds payload, built like a tank.
October 1, 201015 yr One of my smithing buddies, Darryl, is a VW van life member. I always pay his way to hammer-ins, just to take advantage of his packing abilities. He's like a kid in a candy store when we pack my demo station in the longbed F-250 with a 16 foot trailer behind. He can get half my shop in there, with coolers on top, and room for tailgating treasure eventualities.
October 1, 201015 yr Out here guys take the VW add a radiator in front and put a V6 in the back! Those babies Mooove! They are just great workhorses.

I do not have a V-6 but it is a little more than stock,, it has a 2000cc motor with dual Weber carburetors the v-6 sounds like fun I would like to see how they set that up
October 1, 201015 yr Have a great time Clinton - Yes, more pictures please! I remember taking a scuba trip in a friend's '63 "Transporter" (the one with the windows around the top - he named it Mr. Scott) - Three guys, all our scuba gear and normal tripwear - 900 mi round trip, top speed of about 56 mph - we were NOT popular on the freeway but it was a great little ride and never hiccuped once!
