dont worry jeff, we have shop insurance :-D so this thing is all ready to go, driving and all. and no, shes not ready to jump the grand canyon, we need to put on a 6inch widened beam, and if not converted to IRS and 3x3's we need long axles, and possibly some thing drums?  |

O.K. Jeff,
Here are two of our three Burro's... Mine has the fenders, was built in 1968, is powered by a 1968cc, single Zenith, has bus rear rorsion w/ reduction boxes and it's a blast to drive! I've owned it since 1990... Oh yeah, if you can make out the decal on the hood it says "Orange County Burros" and it's original.
The blue Burro belongs to my son. We found it in the local Pennysaver being sold at an estate sale... His was built in 1967 and even has black / yellow Cal. plates! It's powered by a 1776cc, single Zenith, and has Kubel reduction boxes...
Both are street legal and we love em!
~DR.

I'm glad you like the Burro's Jeff. We have another one that will be for sale soon. <off topic talk> The Flxible belongs to my oldest son Jeremy... it's a 1955 VL-100. My younger son Jason has one as well (it's a 1951-- looks more like mine). I've attached a photo of mine, a 1950 Flxible Visicoach. RV conversion done in Teak and Formica back in 1968 by a guy name John Sampo. John was one of the guys contracted to help build the Spruce Goose. Mine was one of only two Flxi's that he ever converted. ~DR. |

That's looking like a lot of fun!  That's looking like the makings of a dangerous stunt! Did Mr Steve D learn nothing from EBI?  I hope not, I want to see this! |

... Was I supposed to learn something? I thought I was on vacation ... If you could let us know the ground clearance and the wheelbase Frank can design the ramp to the same exacting standards as the one he used in Belgium.  By the way your Nachos arrived, do you want them sent on? |

Frank used a ramp? Did I miss something while I was on the slalom course? Yeah, just send the nachos over, I'll assemble them when they arrive. |
