That is fantastic! I would love to have more info and photos. I really wonder what the transmission setup is like. I am guessing it has reverse so he can get out of that parking space.

unless you're talking about the side. The body line is just washed out by the light. otherwise I looked through the pics in the ebay ad. Nothing too extreme sticks out.

Wheel wells look a little funky to me with that point on the front of the rear fender and the quarter fender badge is on the wrong side or it's running one on each fender?

Didn't a 71 have those awful rectangle front turn signals? maybe a complete nose job has occurred? Rockers look sort of squared-off, too.

LOL. That rocker is f*cked. It comes straight down to an edge. The other side is still factory looking.

Saw this on KPBS show about Cuba. This was the only bus I saw. Heavily modified. Show stated last year for imported cars was 1957. What are the chances this was a barndoor?
