Your bus rocks man!

I would give anything to own one, sadly not that easy to find anymore. I'll keep an eye out for it when I'm in Stellenbosch again.
Cheers

HR, I found a guy called Jurgen in the Strand as well who knows loads of people with all types of ACVW's especially buses. He's going to help me with the wheels when I get back and check the rear brakes as I think the wheel coming off has damaged them badly.
He was born in Wolksburg!

DD, that looks very nice! I am envious. The interior in my "restored" bus that I bought really looks k@k compared to yours.
