That is Rob's old bus, the best original bus I have ever seen. Mucho dinero spent.
Nice buy.

Re: 1957 spltscreen beauty
That's Rob Willison's bus that was auctioned last year. Do you own it now Didier?
It's a very nice bus, BUT far from original. IMO it is over restored.

Not an ambulance. Those taillights and centre brakelight was standard euro spec for buses 3/55 to mid-58.johanb wrote:Look like an ex ambulance with the center red light.. Might be wrong thoughVDud Bulli wrote:Nice Bus.

Those are the taillights and brake light I need for my 57 kombi project. If anyone has spares, I have cash or other rare parts to trade.
