On the road again after 22yrs

Mar 14, 2007 2 Replies

The inspection sticker on the windsheild of my wife's 72 westy expired this month 22 years ago in 1985. I pulled this bus out of the junkyard about 6 months back and as soon as my wife saw it she had to have it. Well now with a rebuilt 1800, 4 new tires,It will be getting a new one this week after I install the replacement windshield and rubber.



Over all the westy is in good shape, there has been body work on the rear right corner (crack shows !/4"thick bondo) and the rt rocker has rust thru, But I plan on doing the bare repair work and showing it at some of the full moon bus camp outs before painting it.



I'm just happy that I have been able to drive it after its been sitting for the last 22 years.

Only 1/4" of bondo? I bet you can fix that real quick. Better not treat anyone or call the sherff though.
