    The interior - needs a clean and new curtains, I think everything in there is original.

    Looks like a proper solid bus. :thumbsup:
    I hope you get the steering sorted without too much problem.
     
  5. I think those space saver spare tyres are pretty rare.
     
  6. You have a beauty there. Way to go!
     
  7. Very nice indeed, lovely looking bus..

  11. Cheers for all the comments! Good to get confirmation that I've made a wise purchase! :)
     
  12. Took Alvin on a drive out this afternoon to find some snow! We don't have any here but it only took a couple of miles to find some...

  13. That has to have been worth the wait, looks like its pretty complete, the hob looks unused the bumpers look super straight. Is the mesh cover over the engine fan missing? Mine wasnt there and needed to be replaced to stop nasty stuff being sucked into the engine.. Well done mate, enjoy
     
  14. A long overdue sunny trip to the beach!
