hi my name is ben and i´m from germany. some of you will already know me, maybe because of my jan. 1951 split laid out on earlys.. but this one is "history". i sold it to realize my dream.
i was searching over six years for the right barndoor.. and i think i now have something to deal with!
here are some pictures of it. i´m pretty shure a few of you will know it before..
i think i will need some help for the future with it, because these things are special.. i hope you all will help me up?!
regards,
ben _________________ The original GermanRestoKommando

Cool bus That bus is early! If you need some help with pics, i will try to help. I'm trying to get very detailed pictures for very early dog legs with no help. Early 50-51 had differant ones than 52-55 barndoors. Came any one help.
Good luck with the bus and happy hunting.... |

Das ist gut! When you get this bus on the road, running and driving........Ich mochte einen Fensterplatz nicht raucher haben. Verstehen Sie Mich!?
When you get the cartoon characters coming up in here and laughing. Pay no attention. I was in your boat at one time. As a matter of fact, I have one that is in bad shape. But that one will be laid out one day soon? For most people they are going to question you as if you are crazy. But who cares.
