Greetings Vanagonauts,

I towed my westy 250 miles from the Utah desert several years ago using
a car dolly for the two rear wheels.  It worked flawlessly even at
highway speeds and over 20 miles of dirt road. You do have to lock the
steering wheel and tie it off.

It was a lot of fun pulling the van backwards up onto the dolly using
rope and the ole 76 Lincoln Continental.  The Lincoln pulled it home at
55 mph even up Soldier Summit west of Price, Utah.  Maybe I can put that
460 CI engine into the Van next time it drops a valve. (Would that count
as a conversion, would I have to raise the bed height?) Fryday humor,
: )

Of course now I have the infamous Mark Stephens engine with the 100,000
mile valve seat warranty.  It has been great ever since.

My burningman project is still being discussed but I want to build a
cart powered by old bicycles that carries about 4 people around.  Trying
to design it to be 2 person powered.

We also discussed having a float which would be a rolling bar, maybe
even a co-ed rolling strip bar, that would fit in best.  My tickets have
arrived so I am going.  Is there another bus camp being planned?  Last
year I was camped at 15th street and outer circle which was nice to
escape to once the apocalypse started..  Any burningman ideas welcomed.

Happy Fryday,
