Hi All,

Well I went and did it and bought a new to me, 84 Westy to replace the 81,
which is in the process of moving to it's new home.  Some of you may
remember me from long ago when I wrote articles on installing the
Eberspacher gas heaters and the best way to remove and install the fuel
tank.

Now for my questions:

-do we have a dealer out there that will cut us a break of say 20% off
list? I have this arrangement with a Volvo dealer out in Keene, NH.

-recommendations on the best way to straighten the rear bumper?

-anyone want to come over to my house and walk me through the steps to
bleed the air out of the cooling system?  I remember chortling to myself
all those years ago about not having to do that on my air-cooled.  This is
what I get for not paying attention then...

-anyone have a spare right front lens or bra they'd be willing to part
with?

-I've ordered a set of the push in type clips for the sliding door panel,
since I'm apt to destroy the old ones when I take the panel off.  I need
to figure out why the door handle binds and will probably snap off soon If
I don't take care of this.  Recommendations on tools/techniques for
removing the clips without demolishing them?

Can't think of anything else right now.  I have to say that I'm glad to
have a reason to come back to this list.  After experiencing what some
other auto/moto related lists have to offer in the way of comraderie, I
have to say that you guys/gals are still the best.

Jack
