I think they are cool as ##& , but I suspect you are creating the "perfect storm" for rust with them on.

I think those rat's ears are the coolest example of boer maak 'n plan and are part of what makes that bus what it is. I would keep them, but it's not my bus ...

This is going to be interesting! Thanks for the idea Tony. Keen to see the results and opinions here.

If I had not bumped the one off, they would still be on there, but I am really undecided now.

I agree its part of the history, but damn they are so ugly.

Were the ears air ducts for forcing air to engine compartment?

My vote will be to keep them - for display, carshows, part of the bus history, etc - but dammit they are fugly man

I love the ears because they are part of this splitty's story but then so is Sean. Leave 'em off but you may have to patch those holes.

The ears must go back, and painted to match the bus, (weathered) as the red oxide does not do them Justis
