06/29/03 BigStew I've got a '66 just like it I've been, aahh, 'restoring ' for the last 25 years. In other words, it's been garaged the last 20. The interior looks to be Sundial and the roof is identical to yours. Sundial did this as an option on some models but I ain't seen any others but mine and yours. Not even in my many junkyard visits. Good luck with this one.
06/13/03 Lill' Mona I recal my ex-boyfriend's similiar van. He drove it through Mexico one year. After putting several hundred dollars into repairs. Sort of what is required for this one. Due to its innept apparatus(the Chassis had more rust on it than a ball park weenie) and undersensitive steering to. It was a 67'. So,after Bernard arrived home to Whistler he had many a story to tell. He met a welder named Weldon from Winnipeg. They worked on the passenger side seats and the doors. Sadly,the van was impounded on Mayne island after it crashed into the Spring Water Inn. The owner was irate and unclothed. He pressed charges and Bernard is the 'Prag' in Kent. I hope your time is better spent.
06/03/03 Stewart This is a classic fixer-Upper jobby. Yes,indeed. Bearded lunatics and fuzzy thinkers alike can rejoice and raise a glass of whiskey over this vintage vehicle. Folks may chuckle and pull a jive ass manouvre...with words of disdain and clever forms of regional phrasiology. Vana-Hollics and dweebs can take a windex bath over the costs as well. Plucking your beard with tweasers is less affective than good old elbow grease. A little birdie told me that the new owner is without a job but really relishes the time he has with ole 'Wanda.'

I bought this bus in early May for $600. Mechanically sound but needs a lot of body work as well as jack supports and outriggers. I'm thinking of getting rid of the raised roof.

03/04/04 Gillboy! Arran, i'd have paid the money dude! I nearly bought one in England 4 1800 which is about $3,400 so it aint bad mate. $600 is about 340 and i'd have definately paid that!! Good look mate.
06/13/03 arran Yep time to dust off the cougar photos. Luckily I do have a friend who knows how to weld. It's coming along slowly but surely. Does anyone have info on the raised roof???
06/06/03 ED Honestly, $600 seems abot $500 to much. But I'm from the N.E. and have seen some rough rides revived. This on the other hand looks pretty bad. Hope you have alot of time, money, and friends who know how to weld. Good luck and hey, the last thing you need to worry about right now is the raised top! Get to work!
06/02/03 Disco Dunn Bearded, my good friend Arran is currently putting his heart and soul into restoring this vehicle. It was not bought for the purpose of cheating on his lady. He is the salt of the earth and has a fascinating collection of photos featuring you and a cougar twice your age, so cut the guy some slack, will you?!
05/28/03 bearded This is the biggest piece of shit I have ever seen. The owner of this must be very proud. For $600 he could have gone to Cancun for a week long bender and maybe even have gotten laid. The chances of getting laid in this thing are zero, even if the girl is drunk he still won't score dude! Two thumbs down!

Senior pranksters take the bus to school

05/22/03 Taylor Nelson This was done over at Homestead HS in Sunnyvale, CA back in 2000 (I think). This bus was in the yard of a shop I used to deliver parts to. The kids bought it, hacked it down the middle of the cargo doors, put a hole in the floor and roof, and then stuck it around the tree as their senior prank. I think it was a 66.

07/11/03 Clayton I have just bought a splitty single cab and I am having trouble finding what year she is. I think she may be a 55 but I have been getting conflicting information from books and I was wondering if you could help. Could you tell me what the number in the left hand engine bay mudgard curve is. The number in mine is PU1416. Any information you may have would be greatly appreciated as I really want to know all about my new (old) bus.
Regards
Clayton

03/13/03 splitwindowman C'mon, Rikki, we need a name or e-mail address as well. The warning doesn't do much good if no one knows who he is. Expose this lying cheat!
03/08/03 Brendan Rikki- Why don't you post his name for all of us to see? He's obviously a jackass and I don't think he deserves anonymity.
