Great video (although sub titles in this one would have been useful for me as a non German speaker).
I’m interesting to see and learn more about your new 52 and 54 finds Florian
Many thanks

Dave, it has subtitles, default is german, but english is a choice i the settings.
German subtitles for german content is not that unusual, as local dialects can vary greatly in Germany. _________________ regards

Thanks! I didn’t see any subtitles, I must get more observant and I’ll also look for the settings and opt for English. Thanks Mandraks |

I don’t think safaris were an option until around 53 |

Amazing progress on this bus, considering how bad it was. Interested to hear about the 52 and 54 you located Florian - any pics of these? I am sure I am not the only one who is curious! Every time we think all barndoors have been located - more appear. |

Nice job!
Second oldest samba, I have never seen or heard about the oldest surviving samba, does anyone have any pictures and/or information about it? _________________ Why have a good looking face? You can't even see your own face! |

if you look at the barndoor registry at http://barndoor.dk, you will find a picture of Claus von Schmelings bus:
Ch.number 20-013924.
Type 24G.
Last updated March 2021.
It still exists and it is older than Florian's, and it is a legit Type 24.
