Does anyone know if there will be another Blue Ridge Bus Tour later in the year?

Yep 13 turns is ok. Putting back by number of turns is just a general guide to get it close assuming it was aligned correctly before you started.

Hello fellow Moonies. I have been away for awhile and we have had a ton of new members since I was a regular contributor in the forums. So, hello to my new friends and a great big hug to all my old friends that I dearly miss.

For those that don't know me, I became a Moonie in 1999 while stationed as a Marine in Beaufort, SC. I purchased my first bus from the base lemon-lot and soon ran across Snoopy and his new FMBC site. I believe it was a BB at the time. I was member number 11 on the original site.

My bus is a 1971 Non-walkthrough 9-Passenger Deluxe that through time has grown up into a Riviera camper. I was driving home from the previous owners home trying to think of a name for my new bus when I was almost t-boned by a Sunbeam bread truck, so Sunbeam is was! She sits today in my driveway being prepped for a shiney new coat of paint. In 2005 I completed restored the interior and installed a brand new Strictly Foreign built 1641CC with a mild cam, dual Solex 40s, and a freeway flyer transmission. I have about 2000 miles on the new drivetrain which includes a couple trips to Pony Pitch, one EB, and a couple local Misgivings.

I also have a 1000 piece collection of VW die-cast cars/buses. Some of which find there way into the for-sale forum from time to time.

Hello again to all and I hope to see you all again soon.
