My new 69 Tin Top, I'm so chuffed with it having been searching for the right one for some time. Thanks to all of you that has helped with with locating and for the advice given over the past few weeks. Very much appreciated. I'll be in the parts wanted section soon, need a few bits and bobs to put my stamp on it. Beaming!! :D

That looks a real cracker, and a bit less than 20k perhaps? ;)
Thought the reg number looked a bit familiar, realise now that 'Slammed's bus (also beige) is EPV 62H.
Spooky! Can only presume they were imported around the same time and registered at the same DVLA office.
He has a thread in 'Gallery' entitled... 'Beige is best (except Ash's bus which is beige but rubbish)'...if you were interested!
Enjoy the bus. 8)
 
Nice, looks better than the blue 'restored' bus you were considering.

Welcome to EB ownership, let the fun and bills start!
 
Does look like a nice basis to start with so well done and welcome ;)

Mines EPV 64H :D

Cool bus 8)
 
Now that is a very cool looking bus - particularly like your interior panels, wonder if they are homemade or TMI/Newton types - need more pics ;)

Congrats on your purchase!
