Hmmm,

First, it is a nice looking bus. Two, it's not what the owner says it is...

You don't do 'body off' restos with busses (small point).

For a body that is 100% correct there are no belly pans! EVERY factory sunroof and double door bus had belly pans! Could have cut em off because they were rusty and didn't replace? The other give away is the wiring loom which is loosely strung inside the chassis.

ALL factory sunroof busses have this loom running through a separate tube (so you could reloom em even with belly pans in the way...)....

I STRONGLY suspect a reroofed 13 window
bus. Still a nice looking bus - BUT not what the owner claims it to be!

so are belly pans sort of square shaped things that u have on ur website that attatch to the bottom?

Indeed. Extra strengthening for sunroof and double door busses. They have a floor and a sub floor (the belly pans....)
