This is my 56 Standard. I've owned it since Labor Day, 2002. I spent a month and a half rebuilding, cleaning, and painting all the running gear/mechanicals. As of today, 12/6/02, I have put over 2400 miles on the bus. Not too bad for a $20 tranny! And now the bodywork and general appearance clean-up will commence....

The truck is back from the body shop to fix the damage incurred during towing. I've collected the pieces to re-install reduction boxes and lift the truck to stock height, and have replacement metal on order to fix the floors and other issues. Stay tuned!

12/22/02 Alexk LOL..."welfare drop". Too funny.
12/21/02   Plus with smaller tires you get a slower top end.
12/20/02 Thom Actually, a stock-height bus, with proper tires, can keep up with traffic better than a bus with a welfare drop that has to stop for every pothole.
12/20/02   nah, raise it back to stock, who wants to be able to keep up with traffic anyways?
11/27/02 Thom Guys, raising the bus to stock height is just the beginning of the restoration! Over the winter I'll be re-doing the floors, fixing the hack in the dash, the seat bulkhead, re-doing the outer bodywork, and new paint. I'll probably add safaris as well.
11/27/02 KruKab Raising the back?You call that a resto??
Look at the www.vwbusclub.nl.
Check out the resto a friend off mine is doing on his 1966 combi!
That is what I call a resto!!
11/26/02 Tom Mink Yuck! Good call, Thom - raise it back up where it belongs!!
11/26/02 Spengdog Yeah, leave it low! It looks fit!
11/26/02 Rikki James Your not wrong!
