I can't believe you people are debating this. Sweet Christ on a popsicle stick! Who cares?! You're like those people at company meetings. You know the ones. When we're all hoping the meeting will end early there is always at least one of you who wants to debate about the temperature of the employee drinking fountains or some such crap, until the meeting inevitably runs late. Yeah. You know who you are. "From Hell's heart, I stab at thee." Kahn 8)

Well here are the designs I've been playing with. I don't know if they're logos, bumper stickers or what but I had a lot of fun making them. They are what they are. I hope you enjoy them. If you see anything you like but would like to alter it, like remove the text, change the bus, etc,... just let me know. I have all the components filed away. I can whip up a new combination of anything you see in just a few minutes. I didn't know if we were including all 1972s or just the ones with the high turn signals and big bumpers, so I did both. I can always alter the early 72s to look like the later ones. Whatever.
if it doesn't have low lights up front, wrap around front bumper, moon vents and small oval rear lights then, regardless of what features it has in place of these, its a late bay. Period. Call it a crossover or what ever - the first bay window not to feature the above items is a late. I currently have 5 bays on my patch, 2 '72's , a '74 late and 2 '76's, they all have totally different features One of the 72's was built on 10th February 1972. It has lowlights, crap indicator switch gear, disc brakes with servo, square rear lights and square rear vents, stupid pull up to lock handle and a nice door to hide the fuel flap. The other 72 was made in June 1972, it has the same features. Both were built in Emden, not Hannover
Last bit of inspiration before closing. I wasnt going to do any more then had a change of heart and got all obsessed again lol. Its just more variety on the same concept. Dont know if people will like the brighter colours from my previous designs on page 6 http://thelatebay.com/index.php?topic=3733.100 or these more muted retro style ones? Any ways there is plenty of choice. As before best viewed as pdf but posted individually on here too. http://www.deanbutlerdesign.co.uk/Other/TLB40/PDFs/TLB40_Design03_Muted_Retro_Set.pdf
