    You are proving how you are a hard, hard-core VW guy. What an effort to reclaim those "pieces" which were maybe a year away from being fully reclaimed by mother earth. Well on their way to basic iron ore. LOL.

    13:43 Jay, but you fighting against it and winning encouraged me to keep working even when felt like crud, plus severe pain, due to my chronic illness/condition, knowing your condition. So, you had a part in helping me get Dad's 1964 Beetle he bought in 1968 on the road, so I can go to medical appointments. Wish you were not on the opposite corner of the USA, would buy you lunch.
    By the way, up at five to attempt to get the shifter adjusted so not going into reverse. DayQuil thankfully took some of the nausea away. Well, better get out there before gets any later, just wanted to give you a big thank you.
    Cheers,

    Years ago, I cut the roof off a well trashed '60 15 window in Northern MN. I could only get within 150' with my trailer. Flipped it upside down as you did, clamped a rope to it at the center windshield pillar, and dragged it with all my might. Would have slid easier if the roof wasn't crusted over with lichen.
    Ended up setting it right side up on some wide sawhorses, and trailering it 1400 miles across the Dakotas and Montana to get home.

    Dang near need a dredger to clear the land around that bus! Looks like the dolly used to move it was still under that upper remnant of a bus, might be worth saving if it's not too rotten. Heavy-duty casters! Should pull better on its roof.
