The Vanagon Valdiz sails again!
Bugg Craft finally finished rebuilding my '80 Westy's engine, and so far, so
good :-)
It now almost goes fast enough to get out of its own way :-)
I've driven it 100 grin-filled miles since yesterday afternoon.
I have one problem though...
Now that it no longer leaks oil like a supertanker that's run aground, I
can't very well go on calling it the Vanagon Valdiz.  A new name will come to
me, in time...

'80 Westy -- 100 miles on rebuild (0%-Lilley, but wait till next time!);
about 80,000 on body and drivetrain.
