painted for the first time in 46 years!

[Guest]

I've had this bus for a while [some of you might have seen it at the Volksworld show a few years ago] a completely original interior and exterior and never welded or painted EVER. Primarily I use it for weddings and day trips and it was starting to get a bit shabby so a fresh coat of 2 pack was required after 10 years of salty UK roads out in all weather.

Although it broke my heart to do it as this bus was so original there were spots of surface rust starting around the rails and where there were stone chips. The window rubber was 46 years old too and it came off and went back on like new rubber.

i got a really fussy Polish guy who did a great job

Johnny, the rubber of the windshield already deserved after 46 years, very good work, good kilometers, with earlybay and family.........

i think ill resurrect one of those Bra threads, vunderbra seems to be out of business and no one is doing chequered style. Some paint chips already on the nose

 

[Haveacamper]

maybe contact Bromsgrove AutoTrim to see if they make them?
