BARNDOOR BUSES SPOTTED FOR SALE
by musclebus » Fri Mar 10, 2006 4:17 pm
Hi
Having seen a few of the responses to this post I was wondering if we wanted to have a thread devoted to all things Barndoor, where we could post pictures of our buses, our musings, rumours, humours, horrors & delights, spotted classifieds, news, technical stuff, links, meetings and greetings, show pics, pre-Camberg chatter, owners experiences of owning one of these old beasts
.......ok, I think you can see what I'm getting at
If there is a positive response to this idea perhaps this thread could be moved to the ssvc or chat & dicussion part of the forum (Gizmo?)
HINDSIGHT KICKS IN, ABOVE STUFF MAYBE TOO DEVISIVE SO IGNORE!
For starters, 54 BD bus for sale, obviously not mine, its in Canada
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/ ... ?id=288181
recently restored (pity it was in its og Dove Blue) would save alot of restoring time and money, it could do with some cream for its spotty face & ar>e but @ $22500 = £13,027 ???Good / Bad price??? Doesn't include shipping and the Taxmans tipple
ATB......... Chris
