Hi guys,

I saw a Champagne edition bus at my local wreckers yesterday. It's pretty much untouched. I'm a Ghia guy, but I knew enough to recognize it for what it is.

What parts, if any, should I grab for trading fodder?

Thanks,

M>

Can you buy a vehicle from a junk yard in Canada? You can here in the states. Just about every bus needs an engine.

Yes, it can be done, but it's a little more effort than I can go through and I have nowhere to put it.

Well, here is a good start to what is on that van.

Check out my gallery for pics of a CEII pass van that is near mint condition, it will give you an idea of what its supposed to look like Smile
