It's called adventure. Kids you will get no grief here. Looks like buckets of fun. Enjoy your life while you are young. VWs were a right of passage when I was young. Don't worry about the journey. Enjoy the ride

I got my 65 during a winter storm advisory in New York, normally a ?? 8 hour drive ? IDK. Uhaul guy #2 said, oh I had a dr appointment, I'm not sticking around in this snow. It snowed the whole trip ! I took my front spindles off my 67 since the 65 had no front spindles ! Anyway, that was like 10 years ago - sea blue sticker still in place and you can see it in teh cargo door when you open it and since the door panels are long gone, you see the sea blue there too. Which is was rust free as as yours....doesn't matter, I'll fix it

@hippiesnap That will be part of your legacy. I'm seriously thinking about buying another Bus. It would be a project. I can't afford the ones that are already done. My first Bus was a '71 Westy. I bought it for $600 and drove it 60 miles home. It had gold, shag carpet on the walls and ceiling (first thing I got rid of lol). The clutch slipped in 3rd/4th gears if you didn't downshift quick enough on hills . But it was rust free and I took it on many trips. You're doing good things. I enjoy watching.
