What’s going on in the off-road forum

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

What’s going on in the off-road forum

Post by david58 »

Hey guys, it’s been a while. For the last five years I’ve been in and out of the hospital. I was on oxygen and I think it’s been like three weeks now that I haven’t had to have my oxygen and for the last two weeks I’ve been wearing a heart monitor. It comes off in the morning Every time I go to do something., My heart races it gets to close to 200 beats a minute, but my oxygen levels stays above 90. I’ve seen it go to like 88. I think it’s the lowest in the last three weeks. So I’m doing better. I’m getting out a little bit and doing things a little bit and not like I used to. Oh boy It is terrible getting old and crippled. So is there anybody that lives near Savannah? I may have some parts that somebody may be interested in I’m sorry, but I’m not gonna do any shipping. It just cost too much and it’s a hassle. I’ve got a pretty complete set of VW factory manuals I have a factory bus manual and a bunch of other miscellaneous stuff.

How many of the old OFF ROADERS still around.

Hedrock and I both sold our vw's. Skidmark lost his in a shop fire. O'fogasaurus passes away this year too.

I moved to Blanchard, OK. Hedrock and Leatherbeck both moved to Oklahoma but I haven't seen either one yet!

And I got a Crown Vic with air conditioning and power steering and brakes. Also, I got a granddaughter and another one on the way!

Hope you get better soon.

Hey stranger; the years are going fast! I’ve got a 1 & 3 year old and trying to juggle a dozen VW’s hasn’t got any easier. Dad retired went to the coast about five years ago, try to see him once a year…most everyone I know been getting a new machine, CPAP that is. 😂

I built a 600whp Tahoe to haul the kids around in; growing old doesn’t mean growing up 😂 building a ‘57 Baja for the Boy now, but I know he’s mine because he likes the ‘74 Bus more. 😎

Hope the health keeps coming around for you. Summer weather just around the corner.
