Brad - wow looking great...

There's a real tight brains trust down there in SA. It's refreshing to see the VW spirit of helping out your mates is alive & well.
I'm looking forward to getting down there & meeting you blokes.
Bus is coming on great too BTW.

Bus update
Picked up the bus last weekend from coopers shed
Pretty rapped with how the rag install has turned out thanks again cooper
Dropped the bus off on my way home at my mates workshop to start prep for gearbox mount and front oilcooler mount Also started preparing bits to go back on the bus

Also had a play with some wheels/tyres

Nice! I cant wait to start putting bits back on mine instead of cutting them off or repairing them!! Looking good.

I do like black steel rims on a bus

While the bus has been out of the shed I’ve been busy working on doors, door tops, engine lid, rear valance Removing paint from my og mango/ sea gull grey door tops I scored at a swamp meet a few years back Also getting together a set of glass and associated bits to make a complete door tops

Yep it sure feels like I’m almost over the hump and I’m on the down hill slide now
Cheers

Yes they did look good under there, they gave of that real aggressive look

Did u end up getting down to the show for a look and catch up with the SA crew tony

hmmmm, I love the engine lid. very cool

A repair/rebuild I have been putting of since I got the bus
Pop out windows, I’ve read on thesamba how these can be a right pain the arse
I finally decided to give it a crack, wish me luck First set are og to the bus so have some nice roll over graze patina marks Second set are pretty mint for old pop outs and have og white which I’m not sure is a correct match to seagull Grey
But only need a new outside rubber Third set are average at best and might have to do till I find another set at maybe a swap meet at a later date
( sing out if anyone has a old set kicking around from a old bus )
Rusty did u keep all those frames u scored at the day of one year, looking for a latch holder for one frame
Cheers

1st and second photos are around the wrong way
Sorry

Yeah I’ve still got some frame stuff kicking about, is this the bracket you are wanting?

Yep that’s the one
Prob could fab one up to be honest, but if u got a spare kicking around I might grab it at some stage
Cheers bud
