On 3 may 1954 Wolfsburg started building this bus.
They finished on the 5th, so a couple of days ago this bus celibrated his 60th birthday.

After a resto off more than 8 years Serge organised a party for family, friends, relatives and many more to show the result.

Absolutely a gorgeous bus!!

WOW !!!! It is so good that he decided to copy the original signwriting !
Barndoors without the VW logo on front look even better than with it. makes the front look even more peaked, like the front roof portion. what a terrific result ! gorgeous ! love the vintage faded license plates !
can you have it registered in the Netherlands with the old original plates ?
just great !

Great! Will see it in Scheveningen then.

Did the former owner see it already and did he like it also?
