Is it just me, or does this bus have canvas sides in the back? It would be pretty cool to see it opened up if it does. I guess it could be just a banner attached to solid sides for a parade or whatever event the costumed driver is going to. Any more pics? |

Wanted: 60s illustration / ad sign of a mechanic
I think I once saw a logged bus with some mechanic dude on it – however it could have been a regular VW ad too. I've search the web for hours now but cannot find it again. Does anyone have such an illustration? Something like this:
but with less details, style-wise more like:
Thanks!
