Just joined the forum and wanted to say hi to all.

Recently bought my first bus. It's a '69 Deluxe that I bought from the earlybay member, slammedresto. Haven't decided what I want to do yet and having never owned one before will probably be asking for loads of advice!

I've only owned it for a couple of weeks but I'm already obsessed!

Paul.

hi paul
welcome aboard!

we have the same bus, but i wish I'd had this place for advice and inspiration when i got mine back in.... um 2002 i think

i gave mine a blowover respray, and have been regretting it ever since

so the best advice i can offer is take your time and do some research. even though i have been into buses since the early 90's, i really didn't know just what i had got my hands on til it was too late

all that mechanical stuff is easily sorted, it's the bodywork and patina that gives life to a bus

oh, and get slammedresto's sig off of him, it should be yours by rights now, partner!

Welcome to Early Bay mate , cool bus there . in my opinion i would lower it LOTS and get some dark coloured wheels like Gas Burners or something :wink: Keep the paint as is by applying Ankor Wax mate
