I would just like to thank everybody for all of the great info regarding
Stell, my 86 Vanagon.  Here's an update.  She's in south Jersey at a
shop owned by a co-worker of mine, her husband's shop.  Ed, the guy
working on her is a Bug head, has had a few Bugs and a bus here and
there.  He was able to get her out of 3rd gear, and was working on
opening her up when I called today.  Being that it is a holiday this
weekend, I'll hear more on Tuesday.  I had passed along several e-mails
from yu'll, Ed read the suggestions, and was even checking out some web
sites.  He also suspects a cracked hub, but we'll know more on Tuesday.
Ed, promised to reassure Stella, and encourage her to hang in there.

I can't say thank you enough!
And thanks for pointing out I misspelled Houston, I didn't spell check,
and it was a bad day!!!  Sorry!

Peace, Love, and Granola

Happy motoring and be safe this weekend!
