Title: Fs: Early Bus Stuff
Post by: Matt on January 11, 2004, 09:51:49 PM

I have a right front door, solid w/good hinges and a football size dent. also front and rear bumpers that ain't so pretty but relatively straight. $50 for the door and $50 for the pair of bumpers.

Hey Matt,

What's the vintage on the doors and bumpers.  I have a '59 looking for parts.

Hey Matt,

What are the odds of you having pictures of the doors?  The BIG difference between the early and later bus doors is the door handle location.  The early ones had a smooth surface with only the one indent for the hand grip.  the later ones have a larger surrounding indent around the entire door handle assembly.  Kinda hard to describe but you should know when you look at them.

They sure look like the ones I'm looking for.  If you have the capability take a pic of Just the door handle.  That'll answer the question for sure.  You can consider the works sold if they are the ones I need.  I have a beauty set of doors off a '64 but I want year correct ones for my'59.
