Dang ya i wanted to jump on that westy also, i had tried to get together with that dude and help him out but never happened.

And ive got two complete F.I. setups stashed in my garage too, that i will never use. plus a whole grip of other crap.

Nice, I will need to make an ACVW trip up to Hell to visit and have a little GTG. I have never been there, and I have lived in MT all my life (-2 years).

Stoney! Give me a shout if you need anything or if you want to meet up while you are here - I'd be glad to have ya out at the house.

And consider me a new member of the aircooledtechnology forums :thumbsup:

Emailed about the transporter there in Helena - I think a '78 would be a good year and it sounds like it needs a rebuild so it's a great candidate. Forrest since you drive by it every day, if you don't mind, what's your thought? You can PM me if you have time to reply.

If you hear from the owners i would be happy to go look at it in more detail, with camera of course.

Thanks Forrest! :beer:

Hmmm, well I got an email back on the listing and asked for pics. Sounds like it is in the process of being cleaned out and then they can take a couple of pics. I asked if I could have someone come by and take some pics and take a look for me, so I'll let you know what they say.

Looks like that rear passengers fender corner is busted up? Wonder what that side looks like. :thumbsup: or :thumbsdown:

Well thanks for taking a look - big thanks. Gonna go look at a 78ish bus tomorrow night that has been sitting for a long time. Not a Westy, but a tin-top that could possibly be a camper as it has a power input plug on the drivers side that looks OEM. I'll take some pics and post em up.
