This is going to be a slow thread as I cannot work on the Panel and because I want to finish one part completely before moving on to the next one, so dont expect updates everyday,more like a few a months.
I bought this Van a while back while stil in college and working on the Fleetline, it was a quick deal, I was told its for sale by the previous owner and I said Ill take it straight away,this is also the first ever split-bus I drove in and drove myself
I dont have lot of history on the bus except for the pevious owners little log book that he used to document his trips,If you read at all the names of the places you will see that this bus has been up and down Africa, only a few pages scanned,.
But this will give you more or less an idea on where my little bus was.
It was also called the "olifant" I take its because of the colour
If any one has more info on this bus please feel free to add.
The next few pics is of the bus when I got it,might have started stripping it before photos but again, just a basic rough idea what I got
One neatly made walk-through which I will probably keep that way, great for camping
and two
y seats thats welded on to the body, dont get me wong they are comfy, but cant move back or forward,and you have to squeeze through to get to the back
Started stripping the door panels
Wanted the wheels bright red with the chrome centre pieces on the black bus, but still not on the bus
You like Dutch??
Areas that need attention
Basically this is where I am now, and its time for change.Notice the attention to detail on the handbrake
I have been very lucky in getting both my busses with all parts attached and complete
to make sure it fits right
.
im sure splitz wouldnt mind giving you the address
