I made my first run-through on the yard.  Someone beat me to the tranny!  
Oh well.  I plan on one more run in a few days (their last day is Sunday) 
and most of the items aren't real good as it has been sitting for a 
while.  It does have the water resevoir, upper bed (not real great) and 
front seats (yes J. Brill, highbacks), but ditto on the not-so-great shape.
It's a 76 Westy poptop.

A neat score was a 71 Saab Sonnet(?)  It had all-German VDO guages & 
tach, along with oddball alloy wheels.  Also scored some Mercedes alloys 
(same bolt pattern as 71 and newer buses) for $1 each!  8-)
