Good luck! Hope it goes well. Just one question, why do I see so many split busses with the rear arches cut away like that? Did it rust there?

Thumper...it was a hideous trend in the '80s.

Worldwide, many are in need of metal replacement there now.

The trend was to fit huge tyres at the back.

What exactly do you mean with the '59/'66/'69 Allair?

*lol* Not a chance. HiFi's after that tanned head look.

Almost sure it's HiFi. The KG is a recent acquisition for him.
