pretty good turnout and a nice show...I parked the 77 in the lot and walked over to the show area..a few buggies, street rods, a super, and some convertibles, plus a weird custom body hot rod mini-panel van on a bug chassis and engine, no buses...mainly American cars from the 50s and 60s, with a few nice examples from the 30s...the 1930 R.E.O. was the most interesting

I heard your van caught on fire last week and was a total loss...sorry to hear that (if it was, in fact, yours)...any additional information or photos? mine is parked while awaiting the van cafe fuel line replacement kit...

Wow Pat, when I read that post, I was feeling so bad for you and Doreen.  I'm so glad it wasn't yours.  I was trying to figure out when it happened as I heard you were at the camping event in West Milford.  Its amazing how roumers get started.  Glad you changed the fuel lines. I wonder whose van did burn if any?

the guy lives in Lido...his westy looked exactly like the one that I parked by at the Pt. Lookout show...note I wrote "if in fact it was yours"...I hear from a direct source that the van in question was a total loss and it had recently had the fuel lines replaced...
