Subject:Sorry about the unfinished message. Broken Bus by the Boarder of GA/FL
From:Ryan Heidcamp
Date:Wed, 21 Jul 1999 16:18:59 -0500

I am in need of some urgent help.  My 1985 Westy bus has broken down in
Lake City, FL on the way back from a successful viewing of a Space
Shuttle sitting on a launch pad with six seconds left on the old clock.

Anyway, rumor has it that the bus has dropped a valve.  Currently my
family is stuck in Lake City Florida and in need of a good repair shop
or a dedicated list member.  I spoke with my family and they are in the
process of renting a car and driving to Atlanta (where my sister lives).
 I have not spoken to my father directly, but I am sure he is not happy
as we just rebuilt the motor maybe three thousand miles ago.  This
rebuilt included having the local machine shop/FLAPS rebuild the heads.

If there is anybody that could help with a shop name or number I would
greatly appreciated it. Or if a list member would be interested in
helping my dad find and install a new head we would really appreciated
it.

Thanks,
Ryan Heidcamp
