<< I was driving north towards San Francisco on I-280  this afternoon and

there was a
 metal-flake purple solid body van that had the body down to about 5" from
the road
 and the other 3 window busses were almost as radical. The whole parade was
going at
 about 55 mph so I guess there were not too many hot-rods in the group... it
was
 quite a sight and all the other cars on the road were slowing way down to
look at them.

 Anybody know where they were going? (or coming from?) >>

These guys are probably convoying to go to tomorrow's air-cooled VW event at
the Marin County Civic Center.
