67 Westy Hardtop

[tlavergne]

Kind of new here and want to say hello. Wasn't sure where to post a hello so decided here was good enough. Have been a member of NEATO for years and loosely LEAKOIL a long time ago. I am a quiet person so I don't post much but am trying to break out of my hermit status. I am 58 years old and have had buses since I was 16. The newest was a '72 and the oldest a '66. I currently have a '67 hardtop westy that was given to me by the original owner who was a friend of mine. It was pretty toasty when I got it in the late 90's. It was unlicensed and had been a farm vehicle for years. I had the body and mechanicals all taken care of early on but it is going back in this winter to have a badly repaired drivers side replaced with some Gerson panels. I live in Kenton. Looking forward to making new acquaintances and seeing people I have not seen in years. Besides buses I enjoy vintage audio gear and music. Anyway, hello to all...

Kenton is north of Marysville about a half an hour. Columbus is 45 minutes to our southeast.
