Rolling along on this one again, dusting her off after the new owner has had a pile of goodies shipped to me...  All the nasty stuff cut out up front.  New dog legs in, in the process of installing new floor, valances, lower nose.... gonna raise the steering gearbox and make some tubs to clear the tires.... Lookin better again.

Nope.  Already for sale, Wendell is right.  The pics look like they were taken on the way home.  Honestly, talked to Antonio quite a bit about it, and he loves early campers, and that's what he really wants.  I think that he wanted to want a double cab, but didn't really.  The single cab is the one that i got in partial trade, and it's rough.  Botttom line, i want to finish up the Westy, and get my 64 rolling again.  It's been sitting way too long. The last thing i need is another pile to work on.
