Thanks Chuck,
I rang Dubbo today and got onto Tony Taylor who is the electrician who owned the bus and he seems a nice guy.
He was a bit surprised by the call and curious as to how we found him.
He's been retired for over 10 years but he believes that he still has some pics of the old girl. He offered to try to find them for me.
We exchanged email addresses and I sent him some pics of Daisy as she is now, with a promise that I will be doing her up.
He was curious as to who the other owners were. He wasn't the original owner.
I'll let you know how it turns out.
Alan :D :D :D

I got Daisy running today with a 12v system.
Runs like a hairy goat at the moment but a beautiful sound never the less. :D :D :D
That's Step 1 almost complete... now for Step 2 ... get her to stop ie brakes.
Should be able to get started on that on the weekend.
