The bus was purchased from Wilson's sometime in the 90's, and a few years later purchased by Dave who set about preserving it. It was at OCTO 2004 and sold shortly after to a guy from N.Z. whom i purchased it off 3 and a bit years ago....

Lind was your ‘conflating’ comment directed towards me or Linda?
That was directed towards Linda. She was talking about the asking price from your bus at one time in the '90s, and the asking price of this westy now, which are very different cars, so they are not directly comparable at any time.

I was talking to you about your bus at Prado, I was the one when we were talking about the early turkis busses like yours with turkis dash because the fried eggs threw me off for a second. Killer bus you have there for sure.

I was expecting Skim to say throw some CLR on there and it will be White again...

I've had bumpers that looked like that and all of the brown stuff came off with some TR3 paint cleaner and light rubbing
