Hi all just a couple of pics of my baja bus taken a few years ago
it now has a full length roof rack with lader and wood slats, rubberised canvas sunroof, dvd player and racaro seats.
thinking of selling soon to fund my split.

Very cool that one where your splashing through the water is that on the hook point bypass track on fraser it looks alot like it

You only need two tools
Wd40 if it don't move and it should
Duct tape if it move's and it shouldn't

That's some mighty big rubber you've had under both buses. What size where they just for interest. Looks like the old girl loves the rough stuff just as much as you! 😎
