Looks to be the original motor which still turns over nicely. Has the original crank handle and everything! Very solid bus. The driver's side rocker panel is rusted out on the inner and outer panel, and the passenger's side rocker has some rust also. That is pretty much it for the whole thing. It's amazing. There are a few dents that I think with a little work, could be brought back out. There are some bullet holes in it too. All Character

Just so nobody is confused, I found that the crank handle was not original and the motor is out of a '56 bus. Just to get that out there in the open. _________________ RED RIVER VW CLUB---www.redrivervwclub.com

Cool. Gonna hafta look up the new owner next time I make the trip to Blase'.
Will the new owner be letting us in on his/her identity? Or are they going to keep it to themselves? _________________
