Ugh, 5 hours from my home of Thunder Bay Mad

They have been haunting me for the last week but I can't see how I could extract them and get them home in one day. I need a bunch of parts for my 1960 kombi too Crying or Very sad

Very rare to find any split windows in Northwestern Ontario.

Really wish they were closer....

If you look at the perimeter of both of them it is very solid and the rockers look mostly in tacked, so there is a good chance the frames are decent on them. Better than some buses sitting on the wet west coast soil.

Good luck to whoever gets them, hope you can save them instead of parting them out.

Nope, rusty in several spots. Too bad they were sitting in the dirt. I made an offer anyway Smile

The only thing rust out in that picture is the jack point the frame looks like surface rust.

The kijiji poster has modified the ad to for sale for $500. Eric, did you close that deal?

If so, others watch out.

If the busses are being parted, I still need doors, rear glass and maybe an early (square bucket) front clip.

Eric, I travel from out west to see my parents in Quebec about once a year... If you will have any of those parts available for sale, I would greatly appreciate a pm.

Thanks,

Kevin
