I imported this bus a couple of years ago with the intention to renovate and use but baby forces sale

This bus has only had two owners with the last owning it from nearly new. There is a lots of receipts and history with the bus, I have a picture of the bus from the 70’s with the previous owner

The bus runs and drives and the engine is the original.

I’ve done a lot of this work on this bus since I brought it over.

Ive replaced the following.

Head lights and rims, now RHD
Rear lights so now legal for uk( these are the top quality ones)
New clutch
Service on both engine and gearbox.
New cv joints
New rear brakes and hydraulics.
New front brakes and hydraulics.
New tyres and rims ( although I think one of the new rims has a slight flat spot on it.
New steering arms
New damper
New shocks all the way around
New ball joints

There is no rust on this bus although it could do with a new battery tray.

It’s has an interior but I’m not sure what type it is and could probably do with taking and replacing or renovating.
Although everything works, it could benefit from a rewire.

There are a few dings and dents on the bus and the front is dented as you can see from the pictures. Its just the skin

This is a sunroof model which I’m told are quite rare.

I’ve added a link as I’ve taken so many pictures

As previous I'd go up to 7.5k but afraid no more in the current climate-market, I'll leave it on the table should you change your mind. Cheers and good luck whatever you decide, Ben
 
Thanks Ben, appreciate the offer but I’d rather hang on to it and wait for the market to pick up
