Pics later, just pleased as punch, bought it for $113 yesterday! It's rusty, been in California since the 70's sometime, but in a rainy area... No vinyl covering the dash, 68 only KM speedo, sitting on BFG Mud Terrains, love it!

[woodslat]

She's going to sit in the yard for now, West German delivery, built August 8th 1967. M coded for weight inscriptions over the wheels! MT tires have been swapped to my crew cab for now. Rot under the windshield, floors, rockers, not too bad.

[woodslat]

Well, she's now on her way back to Europe, this time the UK! These guys damn near cleared me out this trip... :shock:

 

[froggy]

Whos the lucky sod?

 

[68bay]

im looking for a red drivers seat if you have any comeing to england

 

[Austin]

whos's bought that lot then? looks sweet by the way.

i started reading this thinking, nice one, someone has got a real bargain there, but then read in horror, as a $113 bargain is now coming over here to be sold as yet another over priced bus.

unless of course a private buyer has bought it as a life long dream, will keep it, love it, and never sell it, in that case, fair play!!!!

 

[Graham L]

Its not a private buyer, that container is over $4000 to ship

 

[Austin]

sorry dude, put my foot in it again, i forget that not everyone sells overpriced imported stuff.
