all we need to do now is cover those silly holes in the roof with a permanent pop top!

I like how you labeled Juri's picture

(although you have the arrow pointing away from his left ear)

What's the plan for the interior? Those seats look sweet, just some re-stitching. If youre not going to use them let me know as they could be of use. Hows the front seat cover? If you decide to keep the covers I have them left over from my 23 cos Im going with new covers (if you need to match up some og material or pieces or piping let me know). Anyway... regardless, keep in touch with your wants needs and intentions cos maybe I can help out here and there.

Strangely Ive never seen one that the SWR paint has wiped out before the roof CHB. Mine was almost all SWR or primer as the CHB had deteriorated away. Your bus' previous owners must have liked to polish alot perhaps.

cheers
Dale

That's friggin amazing that there is!.
And some people think original paint needs to be repainted.
If you've got it flaunt it......
It's priceless and unique to every bus....... dents, scratches n all.
