the old and the new.....bringing the donor bus home....68 bay...rip !!

[Blitzkrieg]

That Bay should have rather gone to the UK where it would have been fixed instead of it being used as a parts donor

[splitbusahollic]

we only used the left front door,the back door and some stuff from the dash.....you are welcome to buy it from me and sell it to the Poms yourself if you'd like...it's a 1968..scrapped (papers)

and she still had a rear bumper present, unbelievable !

So apart from your '67 are you also restoring a bay window ?

Thanks for the pics !

[YvaneS]

Is there a thread on the bus u are restoring?

[splitbusahollic]

my son has a '71 westfalia camper and this one had to give some donor parts....but no i don't think i'm going to restore her....unfortunately..
as for the thread on my '67 restoration...will have to see....i am fetching her next week to start work..and i'm sure there will be some pic's to follow.
does anyone know the deal with the vents being on the top ??

Australian bus maybe ???

[jolas]

Those vents are a typical feature of an Australian bus. Had something to do with dusty road conditions. Definetly not put together at Uitenhage. I've never seen one in SA before
