Title: FIELD TRIIIIIP!
Post by: Jerome on November 09, 2011, 08:56:07 PM
This is how it started, " Hey Jerome, this guy wants $1500 for a pre 60 panel and a mid 60's 21 window........ You interested?" :25: Please let them be good, please let them be good, PLEASE!
Hook up the trailer, get some cash, buy some pizza for dinner on the road drive 50km's ( one way ) for this.
It was worth seeing..... well maybe not. The Deluxe had a " little" fire. It got hot. So hot the needles melted in the guages  :c029:. the exposed / burnt metal is now open air. A huge POS. both of em. They're still there. Only a few pieces of glass of any value. Too bad, cause I think this is the closest I'll ever be to buying a genuine 21 window ragtop.  :03:

Funny....I just got the pictures of those busses. The deluxe I think is worth trying to save ...maybe not fully restore but save.

There's only a couple good parts. And if you needed them there are plenty of better parts on the samba for less. oh, and theres lots of fibreglass repairs on both. They're seriously bad.
