ScottsGottaSplitty My 75 Fleetline

Post by Scottwantsabus »

I recently bought a 1975 Fleetline and I will be posting progress and asking lots of advice as I go along. All advice very welcome. I live in Johannesburg and intend doing the bus up over the next 2 or so years. Ideally I'd like to do most of it myself.

Congrats Scott. Your profile doesn't say where you live?
Good luck with the rebuild. I hope you have a deep budget if you intend doing the Splitty properly. Muchos Importos...

Keep us all updated, and post Pics.

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.

Just out of interest. Did you pay 200k for the bus?
Why do we celebrate the guy that invented the wheel??
Surely we must celebrate the guy tat invented the other three
