At the salvage yard today and found 4 buses. Two are 1979 and a 1971, and I don't know what the year of the fourth is.











Both '79's have motors, the '71 has a motor, the other bus has (2) type 2 motor in the passenger compartment.

Interiors stripped?

Which salvage yard? I'd like to check those out. I have never seen any at the salvage yards around here.

Boesen, there are some interior parts, some Westy interior, and one of the '79's is a Campermobile? I forget what it's called.

tootype2crazy, the buses are at Taylor's Salvage on St Charles Rock Road.

How are the prices at that yard? I'm on the other side of the state and get through that way 2-3 times a year...

I need to pick up a middle seat for the '73 - did they happen to have one of them?

bwiencek, I didn't see any middle seat, and the price are reasonable.

I have a couple of middle seats that I would sell for a reasonable price if you ever are south of KC...

Taylors had them? I wonder if they came from Wolfsburg on Watson. Went by there over the weekend and they were closed up and all the VWs were gone. Strange, I had been in there a week earlier looking for a bushing and everything seemed normal.
