And going up any kind of grade...not fun.If you've ever driven one of those really old VW vans, you know how miserable they are to drive....
just sayin'.
I never liked those busses. If you told me in 1990 that they would be $200K collectors items I would have never believed it.
did you see the pickers show where they found a complete 6BBl Superbird and offered like 30K for it and owner declined. Then he told them about a “Barn door” VW bus and they hauled *** outta there to go see it, and offer 50K for a bare shell with no floors or glass, and didn’t get that either.
You probably get the same thing done there.....but over here slipping an early air cooled Porsche 911 engine into those VW buses is often done....does not take much work either. One on my customers has flat four Suburu Impreza WRX engine in his....300 horses will certainly be more fun than the 40 or 50 they came with!!And going up any kind of grade...not fun.
I never saw that episode but that's ridiculous, oh yeah $30k for a Superbird but 20k more for a pos thats worth less than the bird. REALLY, why not just give him 50K for the bird then stupid? I'm glad the owner declined. You know Mike with his VW's though, he loves them things
