To do. To do! To do!!! %&#(*^#(

Oh my the list to be accomplished IF this bus is ready for Tampa.

- 2 tires for the rears
- Weld in and allign rear control arm mounts. Not easy at all!
- find two eccentric bolts for the 944 arms swingplate adjusters. (burried somewhere I think in the basement)
- Junkyard for a good pass heat exchanger and rear IRS bearing spacer.
- Tune engine and carbs.
- Unsure on the exact needs for the emergency brakes. Custom for sure.

The good:
- Tranny ready for action.
- Axles ready and T2 CVs.
- All the little stuff there and ready minus the 3 little things above. Tires I do not see as an issue at all.

Additional work needed later:
- new front tie rod ends.
- allignment on a professional machine for front and rear.
- Heater cables installed.

Arg is this fun? Sick I tell you!

Later,
