1967 13 window Deluxe

1967 13 window Deluxe

by spongebobpaul » Mon Oct 12, 2009 4:04 pm
Hello

My van is currently in with Danny Allan at Dubz by dan getting ready for an MOT. I am looking to do some of the work myself but to start with I want Danny to work his magic!

Its a sliding door 13 window Deluxe Right Hand drive which was from Bahrain. Not sure how many buses went out to Bahrain as its hard to find too much details on them! At the moment its blue and white but over time I am hoping to return it to its origional colour of Velvet Green and Pearl White.

Hopefully I can load up some pictures...

Hopefully these pics will work!
The van has had a front end put on it as it had been bashed + lots of filler. Overall I like to think its nice and solid so looking forward to getting it in some kind of shape so I can drive it around!

Looks fairly straight and if its the same Danny Allen who built an amazing orange mk1 golf then its in very good hands indeed :)

Cheers mate fingers crossed it is solid....

And yes it is the same danny! Went down on saturday to see the van and he had the golf there - serious motor! I did say he should show it again as its been away for a while that lots of new people would have never seen it.

Got some more pics of the van - coming along now, brakes all sorted, bumpers on, windscreen wipers etc... Just need need to get some of the electrics sorted out and it can go in for an mot. Also bought some curtains from Carlos on here (Cheers mate!) which will go with the blue colour so looking to just get it looking straight so I can use it. Then if I can get a lottery win I will put it back to the origional colours...
