| 11/11/02 | Pau | Llstima! I can't afford a simple rusty project and some people can do this!I am really desolated. BTW, if somebody has a 21 or 23w...;-) Greetings from Barcelona and remember: You are always welcome to a free Catalonia! |
| 10/08/02 | busper | I believe that this was infact a movie scene from what I read on the type2 list. |
| 10/07/02 | Chris | So anyway back to this bus,W.T.F? |
| 09/24/02 | superbus | Yeah I have to agree with truckersmike, the bay window looks ok up until 72. The split windows have more classic styling to them. It is all personal preference and opinion. What it boils down to is that ALL BUSES are cool and at least there are a few different types and styles within the spread of the early and late model years and that every person regardless of their liking will find themselves in a bus regardless of what year it is, and that's really all that matters....as long they are bussin' and keeping the VW buses on the road, it is all good! |
| 09/24/02 | truckersmike | I'm not opposed to bays, in fact I'm fond of them up to '72. My first bus was a '72 and it rocked. It was solid and with it's 1800 type 4 engine, I could scream down the freeway at 75-80mpr. She met an unfortunate end though and I've been with splits ever since. In my opinion, most bays after '72 start getting really ugly and the later the year, the uglier they seem to get. |
| 09/24/02 | Sid Vicious | I have been buying bays for years, they make great storage sheds. What else are they good for? |
| 09/23/02 | Sid vicious | well I really like bay-windows....actually, I am thinking about selling my splitty and buying a '71 bay window since that is the best. I dunno though, a Vanagon might be better....since I am a WUS!!! |
| 09/23/02 | Poor Sid, he's gonna be left with all the crappy splits........ | |
| 09/23/02 | Sid vicious | See everybody, bays are better, so...all you dumbies out there go buy a late model and leave the splits to the likes of me. |
| 09/23/02 | buswerks | All buses are created equal....although the bay is far superior to split-windows buses when it comes down to the real facts of durability. Split windows never came with disc-brakes or IRS or a stronger and beefier suspension build, or a stronger platform on which the body is based upon. Bay windows are truly a much better built bus if you are talking in "how long will it last" type of terms. I mean look at how many splits there are out there....now look at how many bays there are, now guess in twenty years how many bays there will be compared to splits....a lot more bay windows than splits thats for sure. And thats because the bay is created much stronger, really, think about it....the bay window is a better built vehicle. Now I am not saying splits suck compared to a bay window, nor am I stating that bay windows are better than splits...all I am saying is the bay is a better built unit and if you want something to last....well...you decide. :)~ |
| 09/23/02 | truckersmike | Awhile ago there was a picture of a late bay window that was engulfed in flames and the caption read, "No use wasting a perfectly good fire extinguisher on this late model". That was some funny shit, I tell you what. |
| 09/21/02 | joey ramone | dammit sid, do you like ANYTHING? |
| 09/21/02 | Andrew | "Note to self, don't carry so much dynamite in the bus..." |
| 09/21/02 | Sid Vicious | Hell yeah!! Blow that pig up. Looks like crap anyway, being painted two tone in some other colors than stock. Probably was really a kombi that was shamefully painted like a standard anyhow. |
| 09/20/02 | Thom | Check those fuel lines! |
| 09/20/02 | leaky fuel line? | |
| 09/20/02 | Chris | what is this picture? Someone (a talented someone) playing with Photoshop or was this a movie stunt or something? |
| 09/20/02 | I feel sick | |
| 09/20/02 | Brendan | Too bad they didn't do that with a Bay Window... |
