| | | Howdy from Mayberry | Joined: Jan 2021 Posts: 27 Likes: 3 newbie | OP newbie Joined: Jan 2021 Posts: 27 Likes: 3 | I live in Mount Airy, NC AKA Mayberry. I have had a long history with vans, and finally decided to check out a forum dedicated to them. I had a VW bus in high school, and after graduating I lived in a 80 Chevy van. After about a year, I sold it to buy another VW and lived in that for about a year. I have had several VW's since, as well as an 84 Econoline extended van. Now I have a 69 Econoline to tinker on. Hopefully I will be able to contribute in some way on here and look forward to learning from the van gurus here. | | | Re: Howdy from Mayberry | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,696 Likes: 172 Old Timer | Old Timer Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 32,696 Likes: 172 | to the site from Pittsburgh!

I've had a few VW vans myself. Only one that was ever a daily driver, though. They were all love/hate relationships. LOL
Your username is cool. | | | Re: Howdy from Mayberry | Joined: Jan 2021 Posts: 27 Likes: 3 newbie | OP newbie Joined: Jan 2021 Posts: 27 Likes: 3 | I will get some pics this weekend. Super solid van. I found myself needlessly impressed with the side step actuated by the door linkage. Cool touch.
As for the name, thank you. That is my name on all forums that I participate on. It was a nickname that stuck many years ago when I was at an Ozzfest in Charlotte. 2001, and the show happened to fall on Geezer's birthday. I made friends with some of the festival employees and was invited to go on the tour as an employee. I called my job and requested an extended vacation, and left town the next night. I was not quite as rough as most of the workers, but was perhaps a bit more "spacey", and wound up being described as an Ozzfest cosmonaut. And was Ozzmonaut to most of the festies for the months I remained with the tour. | | | Re: Howdy from Mayberry | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 4,805 Likes: 123 Uncle Rust N Dents | Uncle Rust N Dents Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 4,805 Likes: 123 | Cool story. I use mine everywhere too. I've been Rusty Pancelode since '98.

James River in Richmond, VA. LOL | 1 member likes this:
