If a Kombi has to die.. it's better to die with flair! 👍

Yeah that bus was on Brunswick St... my girlfriend was tootling along in her beetle and saw the flames and thought "oh my god... thats bretts car... eeekkk" jumped out and then realised it wasn't me hehe... got the photos somewhere.

You can see some more pics of the old gal at:

http://www.flatfour.org/sunshine.html

She has been bought by someone who is not a forum member but no doubt could well become one! Don't we all?

The blue Bus (sadly unnamed to date...) is a 1970 eight seater. Will have to gather some more pics for a separate thread.

hmm.. she's a really nice piece of work! 👍

For a name, howzabout Eileen???... so when your struggling up hills on 1600 power you can sing.. "C'MOOON EILEEN!!!....TOORAAA-LOORA-TOOORAAA-LOOR-AYE AIYYY..." :P

hehe..just kidding.... still sounds like a good name for a Kombi tho... mine was gonna be Elenore, until I found out she alread had a name (NEVER change a Kombi's name! :P)... so she stay's Buttercup! 👍

Nah I got this bus out Narrabeen way. The paint looks better in the pics trust me. It is so peely and just looks like it was put on with a brush in spots. Plus the entire front panel is being replaced as it was rusty and obvious had been hit. Still it's looking good now and the rest of the bus is rust free. The load area is so clean it amazing. Plus i upgraded the 1600 to 2ltr motor and gearbox. goes good.

Is that white bus registered and running by the way, or just a parts hack?
