Ya gotta wonder why they would leave them out in the open. if they are not using them why wouldn't you just sell it when your finished with it and get some money for it before it deteriorates to that sort of condition?
At least some of the parts off these will help get some others back on the road!

i was all up for that panel being the ultimate rat looker, but yes, sadly it is too far gone. but at least it will go into rebuilding the '55, a bus my friend james once owned that has been passed on to rhys.
it is a sad story with both these buses, and the 1 owner '67 bug (with full service history to 1982 still in the glovebox) and the other spare '67 sitting not far away, one day they stopped starting, and the owners just left them where they stopped, didnt even try really to fix the problem. and left them right next to empty sheds too!!! and this is 20 years on, they r still having trouble parting with all this stuff. its a shame really because all these cars were in great condition wen parked, registered and everything.
funny, they refer to the 'blue' one, took me a while to realise wat they were talkign about (the panel used to be blue, i couldnt tell)
