Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.

Re: Spotted rusty split in Montague Gardens
I think there has been a nose job here. Later dash as well. I see they are busy closing up the front indicator cut outs too.

Re: Spotted rusty split in Montague Gardens
Having had a fair look at the pics, that is a f/u of a Fleetline Kombi, which they're trying to represent as an earlier model.

Do you know if they have done any work on this, it looked like it was parked there in that state.

April 1960 according to the VIN. Original colours seagull grey over mango green, shipped to Rhodesia.

Re: Spotted rusty split in Montague Gardens
Really Nic? You're slipping old man. Everything I see is consistent with a 60-62 bus with a nose job. It's a German import, since it has a M-plate and the VIN says April 1960.

Re: Spotted rusty split in Montague Gardens
Admittedly, I'm a little sketchy on this one. I'm seeing telltale signs of panel hacks everywhere. It's definitely had some contributions from a Fleetline.
(Very) late night phone viewing with severe sleep deprivation isn't doing me any favours at this point.
