About the Blog


This is a running record of the work Jason and Lena are doing to bring a 1978 VW Bus back to life. She was very close to death's door when we bought her.

We now have a functional vacationmobile that we are taking on adventures. So, this blog has morphed into a travelogue sprinkled with our break-down stories and latest upgrades. Hopefully more of the latter!

Look back in the archive for ALL the work we did to get her where she is today.

Enjoy :)

Holey Roof Suzanne!

Well, the many, many holes in Suzanne's roof have been welded up and ground down.  The perpetrator who installed (rather poorly) the pop-top had a lot of misses and used really big wood screws to intsall the lid.  So, there were a lot of holes to repair.
We also got the sun-roof out.  Pretty grungy back in tub.  Not sure how we are going to get that cleaned out yet.  The space might make a good hidey hole for awning poles or something while we are traveling.

Up next...quarter light window overhaul.
