Re: Watercooled Bus'


Speaking of watercooled T2's, this summer in Seattle I spotted a most
peculiar conversion: it was a late Seventies bus with the radiator from
some Generican car bolted to the front.  It had some hoses which ran from
the radiator back to the rear, presumably to a Vanagon wasserboxer engine.
Looked like some mad cross between a bus and a Model T, it did...
