Fish, can you take pics of the rust please and email them to me...

bruceybvw@hotmail.com

bus356 ·

When you say "little rust", do you mean "it has a little rust" or "there is little rust compared to most"??

frenzix ·

just a quick question, doesn't the rust preventative system work?

ColumBUS ·

rust prevention stpos more rust, but doesnt decrese existing rust. they work a treat

twoguns ·

i got a rust inhibitor on my bus. when i did all the checking, they said they dont do all to inhibbit rust that is already there. only slow it a little. they are more for good steel only. you will get surface oxidisation with an inhibitor but not actual rust. they run an elctric current thru the body. so you have to have a good clean car. also the problem with older cars is the steel is thicker, so you need the biggest unit you can get.

hope your sale goes well fish, its gotta go to a good home sooenr or later. need another one to be loved and cherished.

The ones that give you encouragement know how much it costs to do a bus.

Thing is , if this was in England it would have been snapped up.

Over here people still think they can get a restored split for $5k.

Cheers

robnjo ·

we know what happend to this bus but where did the other one with the new sill welded in go?...think it was red & white, the one 1 2Guns was after?nn[ Edited on 19-7-2005 by robnjo ]

twoguns ·

i didnt get it if that what you mean...

robnjo ·

I knew he was a bit tight on the price when you were chasing it, was just wondering if someone on here got it and at what stage its at now.

Resto64 ·

this bus in now in Adelaide ,it blew up when the last owner had it and some how its here the guy who got it is getting it going but i have heard some great storys of the sills that were welded in ,steel tube then bog to make the shape
dodgy work by the guy who didi the "resto"

Robo ·

So it wasn't the bargain PPL thought!
Rob...

byronbus ·

Some people have to learn the hard way...the rust bubbles should have been warning signs

kombi-troppo ·

Is the above splitty on Ebay a little dodgy????

tinman ·

Sorry coming into the conversion so late...
Wasn't this the bus that was selling for 5 grand with another thrown in for free in Adelaide?
Can't believe it's over the 8 grand mark now...

byronbus ·

Yekk, look carefully peoples

byronbus ·

$9600, wow, wonder if they know what its like

frog ·

This still makes me laugh this fishmobile, got a phone call this arvo from the fishman to pick up some left overs from up the side of his house (blown RG boxes) n stuff.

crewcabconnection ·

so was it worth almost 10k or not?

byronbus ·

only if you know how to weld

bog's not cheap you know

matttyler ·

Oh my god !!!! A kombi that needs the sills replaced.......Throw it in the bin !!! If thats all it needs 9600 is well worth it.

It wasnt that long ago that people where taking the piss for paying 3g`s for a regoed spit. The market is moving up. ( as it should )

matttyler ·
