62 Kombi
I picked this up this 62 approx panel about 2 weeks ago. I am starting to wonder why! I will be pretty good at welding in replacement panels if I ever
finish this one. It may end up being only good to wreck.

Cost me $100 but that was to have the owner clean all the junk he had stored in out so it was really free.

more pics
The worst rust is in the front right hand side. It sat in a paddock for 20 years and water gor in through the aerial in the roof. The car sort of
leaned to the right hand side and down at the front so this is where all the water collected. What worries me the most is the rust in the chassis
where the front right outrigger used to be.

Gutters look ok. Looks all complete, with handles, glass seats, etc. Just cut out and replace with new panels and have a very straight bus.

This bus is in storage at the back of the garage. I am working on my 60 micro which is in a bit better shape for the moment.
