Not sure if this is the proper place to post this but I just watched a trailer for the New Bob Marley documentary and what apears at the 15 sec mark is a Barndoor in the right corner of the screen, If not....sorry guy's. Now I'm going to have to see it, not that I wasn't going to anyway.

Could be, hard to tell with what you can see. Nice patina though!
I would say looking at the quality of the shot that that is a new piece of footage shoot for the film and not archive? So still exist?
I've watched a lot of Marley documentaries and any interviews I could find and my thought's are the same about being new footage and the possibility it may still exist.

Pretty neat that bus was Marley's. Its a shame its in such need of repair. Good thing for Gerson and Autocraft I wonder how the work is coming along if it even is.

That is awesome! It's actually Marley's bus!
Never been bothered about the Manson bus or hitler vert but I would LOVE to own Bob Marley's bus
It's a shame volkswagen are going to do it up. It needs a patina'd rustoration. You know Volkswagen will over restore it
If anybody's bus should have patina it's Bod Marley's. Like a trench town tin shack or a well weathered natty dread That how he would have rolled it.

Yeah looks like you could buff anything you wanted into that bus. Sky and corner windows, just buff some more. _________________ Looking for the U shaped swing arm for sliding door split. Left hand drive. Baywindow arms are 1/2 inch longer.

its a shame it was allowed to end up in such disrepair.
i agree on the rustoration though. It wasnt new when marley had it and it shouldnt be restored to look new.
just another restored bus _________________ 73 Thing

It does not have to be "restored" as new but it should be put back together and not allowed to just sit and rust any longer. I am sure somewhere there is old photos of Marley actually with the bus. Would be cool to see. Only pictures I have seen are of the yellow bay window.
What an awesome find! Not a big fan of 'patina' buses, but it would be a shame to make that a shiny shiny. I think it would be cool to have it running/driving ... without the doors .
