I have taken over on this bus now. Gerson and I worked a deal about a year ago. It's been in Florida until delivery a couple of weeks ago.
Once I finish putting my 58 15w together I'll be tackling a few odds and end on the RHD.
Below is a list of pieces I either need or want to replace.
Wiper arms/blades need to be replaced
Vent latches are missing. Does anyone have barndoor specific before I go the W.West route?
Slider latches need to be replaced.
Does anyone have a set of good condition originals before I go with repops?
I may need a semaphore switch as well. I haven't pulled the pod out to check yet.
Once I dig into the electrical I'll post with another list.
I'm going to upgrade the running gear as well in the next month or so.
It needs more low, more braking, and probably more HP to suit my taste. |

I've lost interest at the moment and finished/bought other cars while waiting for this one to arrive. Those are now taking my time. This one is just sitting in storage now. Seems like a waste. |
