New bus tonight. 1972 Microbus. Needs work - don't they all?

Rear bed-seat and normal seats (will go in while bed get's trimmed)... walk thru, 1600 tp (yeah it's staying stock for a while).

Whoo Hooo
a RED one!!!

Good score!
Just been sprayed?
Looks in good nick - what work is needed?

HotRodMatt ·

Some surface rust on panels - painted about 3 years ago - bad prep in a few areas.

Some mechanical work - hopefully not too much

Some lights

Some trimming

Handles

Hand brake .... where is it? I guess that's what gears are for...

Redo repairs that weren't done real well - silly front right blinker etc.

But no rust in the serious areas!!!!!!!!!!!!

what exactly colour is it ( if you were told) and also if u dont mind how much did it cost ?? :bounce :bounce :bounce

OvalGlen ·

that Duco is Beautiful, it has that Wet Look shine,
Yes Its pretty Wet around Sydney at present , you probably wouldnt get a dry photo till Saturday.

Have no idea of the colour other than red...

You can see the original red inside and in a few places where the paint wasn't done real well - the original was much deeper and hopefully will go back to that when i tackle the body work - thankfully there's no rust in the structural parts!

What did I pay? Well a reasonable amount for that bus... I expect to be spending more very soon....
