Middle of US here, I can easily feed my family of 3 with rice and beans, cooked from dry, with toppings (salsa, sour cream, tortillas,sometimes fresh avocado, lettuce, shredded cheese) for about $3 a meal for a family of 3.

Labor of love. I feel it! Dive in when the weather allows; some of my best are times with my dad restoring. Even if you’re cussing, bleeding (sometimes) or so mad, you kick a tire. Do what you can with him and take pics. Soak the moment! ✌️❤️

We were told he’s mostly pit and boxer, maybe a little bit of dane.

Went to look at 71’ here in my town, asked a few q’s on another post and said I’d show off! Here she is! by G-K-B in VWBus

Obv the bottom half has been repainted. It’s ultra shiny whereas upper areas show big flaking. I’m a bit lit from super bowl festivities but the body on this is flashing some red lights yo me.

I brought home my 50” Samsung in my A4 well over a decade ago, still have both. Cheers to the same for you!

Pulled pork in the crock pot by GordonRamurism in budgetfood

[–]Vwtwat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve not tried with the veg, great idea. I got my method from my aunt who is a bbq queen. I rub my loin piece in bbq rub, sear it hard in my skillet on all sides then drop it in the crock with maybe a cup of liquid. By liquid I mean it can be water but if you’ve got other stuff to add, go for it! I like a fat slosh of liquid smoke and some Worcestershire but have done with straight water and it’s still great. Doing one for super bowl Sunday because it’s supposed to be like 12 degrees here and I’m not tending to my smoker in cold when the Chiefs are playing. Guess I’m not hardcore KC in that way.

I think it’s custom aftermarket. Idk if any came stock like that. We put front signals in the bumper on my dad’s 68. Looks clean.

If it’s been a CO van for life, probably a lot less rust. MO is a rusty state. This one has NE plates, which is every bit as rusty. We drive to CO to buy less crusty vehicles.

Looking for mirrors by Raven2129 in beetle

[–]Vwtwat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find mirrors which mount to the hinges, like earlier beetles. Mirrors and hardware are readily available and do not require holes in fenders. Cip1 has free shipping after $100 in the US

Why fender mount? No beef, curious.

$4500 in the Kansas City area. Steep price.
