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 :)

Nice rear-end Suzanne!

Tadah!

Up for today: minor touch-ups and sanding to the body.  Hopefully start priming the doors and odds and sods.  Then...COLOUR!
