WOW congrats on the find.
BrisDubba ·
Not fussed on the colour and imagine cleaning all those windows, and given it hasnt been on the road for a while is likely to have bad fuel etc... maybe you should pass on it.. something better is bound to come along.
So - anyways what was the story.
Cheers

out of curiousity, how exy is it for a tint job on a 23 window bus 🤓?
Notch Nut ·
Sounds like you would be in the market for a squareback? I'd settle for the 23 window as part payment if you can organise a cash advance for the remainder😂🥷Volksaddict wrote:. mind you those windows always leak when it rains and youll get sunburnt wit alll that glass around you

So pleased it wasnt found by a speculator. All too often you hear about the steal of the century barn find, for the car only to be on sold for a quick profit !
Enjoy it, and hand down in the family.

A while back, a friend of my father was mowing the lawns for some old lady for a few years when she decided to have a garage clearance. He was told to get rid of everything in the shed as it was all junk and she wanted it cleared. There was an origional TD MG belonging to her late husband with an origional 35000miles on the clock sitting under piles of junk. After trying to convince the ol girl of the value of the car she insisted that this guy have it for a modest price as she had no one to pass it on to and he always looked after her lawns in a meticulous manner and would do the same with the car which belonged to her husband.
Damn I'm in the wrong industry!🤪
