[two benders steve]

Hi all it's a sad day but I think it's time for "phl" to find a new home :-( ... my family of SIX have out grown him !
He is a UK rhd 1969 danbury (I have most of the original interior) but have a hinged deluxe full width rear seat at the min.
"PHL" is pretty fast due to having a 2028cc stroker engine (built by 63rag top) and has run 16second 1/4s at santa pod ! I fitted wide 5 CSP drilled discs to help with stopping. I have new BRM's or vgc polished EMPI 5's.
Full flow oil/filter and remote fan assisted oil cooler
adjustable air shock on the rear
He does need a bit of tlc now , he was restored years ago and has a few bubbles here and there and could do with a new front inner panel. Here's a link to more pics http://forum.earlybay.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=17911&start=0" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
AS for price how do I put a price on a bus when there are so many very silly prices being asked and got in some instances ! I'm going to ask £11,000 £6500 without engine, see where it takes me before I let the ebay crowd at it! Best to call 07944 971493 to discuss all the details of the van and obviously I would insist on it being viewed before being bought j13 m6 stafford

SOLD!

Looks a gorgeous bus. Wish I had more budget to be honest but you have to have something to aim toward. It seems you have had both - do you have a preference of tintop or poptop? Are there advantages & disadvantages to both. I am looking for a bus to share with my son. We have a family of 4/5 aged - 11,13 and my eldest who never wants to be seen with us is 20. Would a pop top be better for sleeping etc?

BTW what's the thing bolted onto the underneath of your van - not seen them before.

hi you'vr more space in a pop top but I think a tin top looks nicer , my bus has full width bed and a over front set hammock and we've been sleeping four on worries , I also have a tent/awning I could put into the deal . p.s I'd have no worries about selling the bus and keeping the FAT engine

Added to my watch list - if i bought it i'd go for a smaller engine ideally - is that wrong?

 

[two benders steve]

Hi , not at all this engine is LOUD and fast and not for all, and to be fair I'd rather keep the engine for my next VW whenever that happens as i couldn't honestly say I'd spend the kind of money a stroker engine costs nowadays again ! You could pick up a nice 1600cc for a few £££'s drop it in and away you go

 

[two benders steve]

Hi less than a day left , with 130 watches I wonder if there will be a last minute rush ? There seems to be a lot of vans not making the money the owners have hopped for recently.

 

[two benders steve]

O well there you go ! It only made £6200 ! But still, not the worst bus to have to keep !"

 

[two benders steve]

£6500 without engine
