That's about 5-6 passengers worth of mass. The racks rode empty on the
back deck, the contents rode on the floor below (no middle bench seat).
I brought home an 11/34, several RL02s and the
two H960 DEC racks (72"
tall) in the back of my 1976 VW Microbus.
Neat! But, didn't that put quite a strain on the bus? I never
realized that they were built to be able to transport loads like that. Hopefully your bus has less rust on the structural
components than my
'67 VW Beetle.
It's in much nicer shape than my '68 Beetle (that needs new floors/
heater channels).
When I hear the word Microbus, I can't help
thinking about that 1970's
country/trucking song "Convoy."
Did they even mention Microbuses? That song make me think of "pick-em-up
trucks".
