| I don't have the deluxe bumper but I do have an over rider bumper for her. She has a bitchin trailer hitch so I'm trying to figure out an attachment setup for a bumper, gonna get creative with an early bay setup I think. Overall though she's been a great bus! Put 3000 miles on her just over the summer and except for a few issues with the starter on really hot days she hasn't given me an ounce of trouble( knocking on wood as I type) |

This bus looks awesome with its Sea Blue roof. Is it repainted or was the white paint just buffed off ? Cool.

Original paint standard Sea Blue. My only regret was it didn't come in a small hatch. I think I'm practically over that now.

My old one, not well restored. Got some good moments, but an overall bad experience.
Never thought I would buy another one since I could get that one not far from home;)
What a lucky guy!
Stay safe!

Here are my submissions. These two were my first Buses. Both 13 window deluxe Sea Blue. This is about 1986 and the one with the wheels missing was deemed too far gone to keep and ended up being hauled off... 
The other one I drove the crap out of. That's my buddy Kevin who came on many of the trips.
I'm still camping and hauling windsurfers around on my Buses all the time.
Should have kept these!
