Here’s a profile of a 1992 VW Bus that was purchased in South America….and then driven up to Alaska.

It’s a weird combination of a bunch of old parts…a Frankenstein bus that doesn’t look like any 1992 that you’d see in the States.

You have to get way down by the equator to find a bus like this.

Listen to him talk about rebuilding the engine 11 times in the time they’ve owned it.

That’s a testament to the…..well, that is a testament to ….something.

These old buses may not be the best vehicles.

They require a lot of attention.

The guy who wrote “How to Keep your Volkswagen Alive” (John Muir) said something like “be kind to your a**, for it bears you”.

That may be misquoted…it’s been 30 years since I got my copy of his book greasy, but I never forgot that.

You have to feed the donkey.

You have to care for the donkey if you’re going to ride it.

If you look up “Kombi Life” on YouTube, you’ll get to see some of their misadventures.
