Big Red & Seirra Yell-Low! A Classic adventure

[squareweave]

Well, we left....... Although it was 16 and a half hours late. We had to sew Geoffs interior and install my highroof and interior panels. We had a couple of little tweaks and all is good now. Well drop a few pics when we get some.

Ok guys, were sitting on the patio at sharkeez in Newport beach havin beers and chips n salsa. It was a long drive and we got here around 1 am last night. We have a bunch of photos to post but were having some trouble hosting them. Well get it figured out asap, no probs on the way here and just over 1400 miles so far.

leep, thanks for posting those pic's.
I guess we were out n the swap when you came by. Will you be at the Classic? if so make sure to say hi!

I just spent the past hour at the apple store getting confused setting up my ipad but I thing we are getting close to posting pics. Here is a bad quality one that I took on the way in between Sacramento and LA. Later today I hope to be able to download pics of my camera.

Buses are running great with only minor adjustments along the way.

Here it goes with an update. The day after Sacramento, the real "Hotel Sierra"

The Yell-Low out for an ice stop

The buses at Newport beach.

.I will try to post a bunch of pics of our stops later today, we have been out for some parts hunts and some shop tours and have picked up some good scores.

 

[poptop]

What parts did you score??? Nos ??

 

[GeoffP]

No NOS parts yet! Pomona swap meet is just a day away so you never know. I did find inner jalious window seals, continental upper bed for my westy. 010 and 019 dist, 68 only rear view mirror, z bed hinges for reg bus rear seat, upper seat belt mount covers, 68 only wiper armsand a few other parts. Richard got a good haul of parts as well. We were there for 6 hours and saw just a fraction of what's there. He's a very nice guy and if you ask he may let you have free reign in the yard like us. He ships tons to the uk all the time.
His back rooms are full of parts, it just makes your head spin... Were going back for more next week!

Pics coming of the yard and parts
