Those flairs are steel rolled out. No fiberglass or cut reform.

Bled the brakes, got her fired up again, mounted the custom rear bumper, & covered up the sunroof hole for transport. She is ready to go to the new owner.

I guess there's always someone who'll like the horrific stuff people did before they got off their drug dependency.
Personally I'd have a grinder and welder out and be fitting new doglegs and rear arches faster than you can say "stoned 70s bus butchery".
In the end though buses are about enjoyment.
Could we enjoy some more pics of the ratty Jewell Panel rolling on those sexy Radars?  _________________ Cheers & God Bless

| Some buses just need to be driven. Hopefully the new owner will lovingly embrace every last "hack" and proudly bash it around in all its Jersey Looker glory. |

I'd think twice about that. It's technically not his anymore but Mr Baracus never liked fools mess'n with his van. |

Well, who's got the sliding rear window?
It needs to be reunited.

Well, the window is in a SS panel, anyways.
You might consider a precious parts trade with the new owner, whomever that may be...
And I gotta admit, the whole sliding window motif is working there, Aaron.

| If the new owner wants it I'm sure He/She will contact me. I'd consider trading for something equally cool and vintage but I'm not interested in letting it go for a blingy new pair of kicks. |

Well the Bus is on it's way to the new owner today. She is staying in the state. I am sure the new owner will post pics of her when she arrives.
