I missed that last comment. Is your bus a camper?

If this turns out to be a Hi-Ace, I'm gonna be pissed

Let's be patient volks, he did say it would be a while before he could visit the bus in storage.
From his description I have my mon ey on a 64-67 Westfalia camper. Not a 54 or a barndoor, but very desireable and a whole lot more useable.
