I'm considering cheating.

Here are pics of the Foose Overhaulin bus. They added 2 extra windows to the top making it a 23 window deluxe, moved the front turn signals and tale lights, safari windows front and rear...

I'll be honest, functionally I can understand the attraction, but looks wise...I don't get it.

Coming from the man that drives a square trooper!














Not that I don't like the troops....just sayin!

And that's why I'm SOOO happy I am an 80s child.

I think its just that it's not really "cool" looking, but just kind of "silly" looking. Not to mention the hippie stigma it carries...and yes, sorry to all you flower children, but it is a stigma, imo!! I'll admit I agree with some hippie philosophy, but when it comes to hippie style I .

Amd WTF, Billy? I thought you were punk rock not hippie!!!

PS - I always wanted to make a shirt that says "I'm so grateful he's finally dead"

When I see a VW bus I think surfer, not hippie (unless it has a flower and peace sign paint job)

Now that you mention it, Billy, during this past Hot August Nights I took a photo of a VERY NICE VW Bus that was totally tricked out as a surf mobile. If I can remember, I will post it later tonight. You guys will like it.

If you simply MUST drive a V-Dub, at least get one with a little bit of off-road capability.
I spent a few years behind the wheel of one of these...ummmmmm...things.

Not big on comfort, but a fun ride if you put big jugs, cam, dual webbers, etc on em...





And one for Bart...

L0L...I never noticed it before, but why does Melvin have a crescent wrench clipped to his interceptor outfit???......
Guess there must be all kinds of loose nuts in the post apocalyptic wasteland...

Shhh...don't tell anyone, but I'm with her RIGHT NOW at a cheap motel in El Centro, California. I rode her hard all night and she's asking for more today!

And yes...photos WILL be forthcoming.

Ps: why is it that all DJs sound the same when you're driving cross-country? You've either got the perky young female, with a cute voice but probably a face made for radio, or the middle-aged guy who still sounds like he finds Hall and Oates exciting and meaningful, through the 80s, 90s and today!!!! And now here's John Denver, taking us back down those Country Roads...

Also, this is definitely a beach surfer bus, not a hippie bus. Although I DID pick her up at around 4:20 in the afternoon.

[Triathlete]

Let me know if you swing through Tucson on your way home...we could do lunch or dinner or just grab a snack!

[alanbradley]

Hall and Oates exciting and meaningful

They're not? Oh...

(Can't wait to see the pics...)

[PHO2GR4]

I'll be in Tucson at around 6:00 - 6:30 this evening!!!

If you get this on time check your PMs...
