Rolling?

byronbus ·

no, was being prepared to be put on a rotisserie

byronbus ·

better for someone local, not hard to get off and on a car trailer, but a fair effort for interstate

dragbug ·

True,
Got a trailer tho.
Thats why was wondering if you had box and beam for it.

byronbus ·

yep, have all the original running gear, has a 36hp engine, i was planning on irs, big motor disk brake front end etc, but have too many things on the go, need space and dont have enough time, and too good to be a shed...

frenzix ·

what a fantastic start to a project, cheap too.

warb ·

I love splits........ just geting bits for mine.... one day baby, one day... :P

Lams ·

hey i know that kombi... it's the one at harding right?

byronbus ·

thats it, I gotta get it out or guy will start charging me storage, he's been pretty generous, its been there for a while...

You want it Lams?

twoguns ·

definately good, as you can see what youre getting and at a price some ask for even when not blasted.

57kombi ·

This must be the bargain of the month.
If only I had the cash.
I hate when people reply to posts and say that , but I really mean it.

How would that look, 57kombi, 57panel.

Cheers
Dave

byronbus ·

Sweet dave, i'll deliver it for a small fee and a ride in your bus

byronbus ·

Its cost me way more than 2k to get it like this...I was one of those people two years ago that paid big dollars, even before i blasted it...

need the space and cash, otherwise it will become a storage shed...

57 Chook Shed ·

Hey Dave, take out a loan on your Kombi and get this. We`ll cruise up there in convoy with Shane and John over Xmas!!!!
Come on!!
You`ve gotta fill that nice new big shed with something!
Graham.

frenzix ·

a semaphore panel too yummy

Guy_H ·

Its a good starter bus, has all the tags - the beam & box are there & it can be made roll again for some labour. If we can help out with any info or questions - please let us know!

byronbus ·

Thanks Guy,

It is a perfect starter, its a semaphore early bus, blasted and primed, im losing big dollars on this but need to move it or Guy will cut my man bits off...

Or its coming to Byron and will become a storage shed with a tarp on it and will rust away...

57kombi ·

I dont have to be told its a bargain, I am just strapped for cash at the moment,
It would cost a hell of a lot more than $2k .
It cost me $1k just for the shot blasting.

If you still have it in 3 months,
I will be very interested,
I know it will go before that.

Cheers
Dave

Herbie ·

I would swap both my buses {59 and 64} for that one as its just the model I like, but I realise that doesnt really help your space problem.

Cheers Anthony

57kombi ·

Send it down to me I will look after it for you .
Got a new shed!
Also got enough paint left from doing mine to do another one!!!!

Cheers
Dave

57 Chook Shed ·

Hey Dave, you could solve his storage problems and then give him the cash in 3 months.
Go on!!

winerot ·

🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁

winerot ·

I wish I could, but I already have one evil VW to look after

good luck with selling it if there's anything I can do to help let me know

frenzix ·

Same bruce, if there's anything i can do to help you get rid of her let me know muhahahahahaha

57kombi ·

If its fussy about where it wants to live, Ive got a new shed for it.

Just bumping it up for you.

Cheers
Dave

byronbus ·

Cheers dave

byronbus ·

Its gotta go or its becoming a shed

57kombi ·

Right, Ive got a deal for you, You bring it over to me and I'll let you store it in my new shed.

Hows that, cant get any fairer.

Bumping it again as I think this is the bargain of the month, and I want it.

Cheers
Dave

byronbus ·

Cheers dave, will consider, certainly coming for a ride in your bus

57kombi ·

Another deal for you,
In 4 easy stages.


1. You bring me the van.
2. I let you have a drive in my bus for the weekend.
3. I get the van.
4. You bugger off home.

Come on cant get fairer than that, or could I????


Just bumping.
I really would like the van but no money at the moment.
This is a great price for what you are getting.
I have said at least 100 times you should never pay more than 2k for an unrestord bus, well here for your 2k it has been blasted for you, what a bargain.

Cheers
Dave

byronbus ·

Cheers again Dave

VolksFolks ·

Hey Bruce, i have a deal, send to me, i will pay you $2000, but you include transport, i will have $20 for you when it arrives Ay!, seriously, if you were closer i would take it foreshore...

Andy

57kombi ·

I pay for my petrol,

and I take it home,

Hows That!!!

I Must be wearing you down by now.

AndyL ·

Thanks for the plumbing job Bruce. Did you want to take the panel home?

byronbus ·

Dude, u2u me what your doing...

I want the twin cab...

57 Panel ·

Tell me how you go selling it O/S. I'm trying to sell my 57 panel but no one in Australia is keen to buy.

frenzix ·

Good to see you got a half decent price for it bruce..

Stealth ·

Love a 57 panel, but i'm have a bias. Good buy for someone thats for sure. My missus would divorce in a heart beat and go live with her mother.......Hhhhhmmmmmmmm .....no no don't tempt me.....................................................................................i'm not looking anymore

:duh

BenettonVW ·

KEEP IT IN OZ!! For God's sake..

twoguns ·

its a bummer. but if nobody here wants it, what can he do. id love another, but boy would i be in trouble.

t2 ·

what happend to johnyjb he wanted a panel ,was talking of an import from us, or was he gunna do that

david ·

if he did not swoop on that panel ,just another of the dreamers on here

t2 ·

i suppose it all starts with a dream , johnyjb is still asleep

57kombi ·

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

That was a bargain.

I'll keep looking.

Cheers
Dave

57 Panel ·

I have one.......

jonnyjb ·

Dreamer, Tyre kicker????

Really little boys havent you got anything better to do but i suppose its easy for you to try and insult people on here as you will never have to face them.

Now just to let you silly boys know i bought a nice panel van which i found in sydney at a very good price. Found a sensable veedub owner who like me doesnt think everything vw is rare is Australia infact quite the opposite.

Thanks for thinking about me but really its a bit creepy!!!!

agree!!!

57kombi ·

I agree, not many vws are rare, there were bloody millions of the buggers made.

People are still finding barny deluxes, as that guy did in New Zealand not so long ago.

Use them and abuse them, thats what they were built for.

Cheers
Dave

david ·

be good to see what you got got , i hope your happy with it, but a bus to the stage off bruces is cheap at two grand ,you just keep an eye out on what you spend and you will work it out yourself ,good luck with it

57kombi ·

I agree again. 2 k was a bargain.

Not many buses get finished as cost is a big part of it and to get a 50's panel for 2 grand that had been blasted was a good price.

Too many people think they are worth a lot more.

Cheers
Dave

frenzix ·

SHHHHH

jonnyjb ·

my post wasnt aimed at yourself. i thank you for the offer of your van and yes $2000 was a good price for it. i was just looking for something else at this stage.
I'm sure it will look great when the uk boys get started on it and wont cost as much as it does over here.

splitbusaustralia ·

I must say I'm wondering how in the hell someone can get a non-roller to the UK when I couldn't find anyone who
was interested in moving it in country!

Very few transport companies seem interested in picking up non-running rollers (unless each end (seller and buyer) deliver and pick
up from depot) and I can't find anyone who'll touch a non-roller?

???????????????????????????

byronbus ·

Will be making it rolling, some things you can do for $$$

I didnt buy this bus to sell and make a profit, infact ive lost that which i sold it for, its going because I have no where to store it or the time to restore it...would have ended up in a paddock useless to no one, at least now its going to be restored...

Offered it here 1st, stated it needed to be someone with their own transport...then it is very possible...

byronbus ·

Would have delivered to Adelaide or Melbourne for a fee

frenzix ·

4 pages for one simple sale. crazy.

rexbell ·

Turn it upside down and stick an outboard on the back - UK here it comes
