I'm getting sick of people thinking that all busses are splitties. No one makes decent diecasts or so much as a coloring page to aknowledge busses looked a little different between 68-79. I drew this up at work last night and although more or less a cartoony feel don't knock the innaccuracies.
Use it for free, ad the vw logo's at your own peril I didn't want to risk the VAG nazi's coming down on me for drawing a cartoon.
Oh yeah, those are p-rate tires on this mofo so be careful that your printer doesn't explode or burst into flames upon copying.  _________________ One day as a lion, or a lifetime as lamb

after you save the pic use your photo editor and make it 200-300% of origional size It'll make it fit on 4 peices of paper. as it is this should take up one whole sheet. i'm off for a few days so I can do some more wednesday night (Too much going on in my free time to do this at home). _________________ One day as a lion, or a lifetime as lamb

I went over the pencil lines a few times but still couldn't get them to scan worth a darn. You may have to retrace a little after printing, if I had steadier hands I'd have done them in ink.
