Ok for the next rendition of what the heck is this? I found this rubber trim piece. It's about a foot long
|
68-72 bay bus front bumper end trim piece, driver's side. looks like a chunk is missing (a.k.a. garbage).

That looks like it but the ends on mine are shaped different. Probably just OG vs. aftermarket thing though.
I'll probably just round file it unless it's something bus ppl want. I'll send it for shipping cost if anyone wants it. |

that's because it's missing a good section of the end. it is garbage/scrap/worthless. |

Ok down to the last little bit.
Most parts unfortunately endent up in the bin, the previous parts I posted I still have. No interest.
The two grab handles I don't recognize. So maybe a bus? They look VW. The little clips have a VW part number 311.. the cork gasket sets look nothing I recognize. I ford some Fire parts in there.. |

Yea, the handles are interior door pulls for bay window bus. Can’t help with the rest, sorry. _________________ Jack Staggs

cork gaskets appear to be "taco plate" gaskets, but measure and confirm. the rubber dingus looks like a "pop out" from a bus cargo floor where there middle seat would attach (kind of useless) and the 3 flappers could be late bay heat exchanger/fresh air flaps.
the switch? looks to be an emergency flasher switch door pulls are bay, and dumper bait if they are cracked _________________

Ok thanks for the info. If anyone wants any of these items in this picture, let me know, I'll send them for postage. I don't have, nor will I ever be able to afford a bus
