Since Bullitt is in the news I noticed a Mango in the San Francisco chase scene. Might even be a Westy since it appears to have rear curtains:

Semaphore sweet, do tell more. What is the year as it appears 55 or earlier.
This shot looks good too.

Have you considered simply starting with a nicer bus? I don't know what your skills are, but the race is easier if you can see the finish line. If you are not a runner, don't start off doing a marathon. |

i just stripped it and today when i got home it was perfect so i wire brushed the frames and painted them. Came out great!! Works busy so i wont be able to drop them off til probably Mon or Tuesday at the auto upholstery place to put the padding and covers on. He said he is busy so i am hoping it doesnt take too long to do just the 4 pieces of front walk thru seats |
Right on! I look forward to seeing them done.
I really need to either restore my seat frames or just find some different ones, the seat and backrest are both really bad at the drivers seat... I would love to do that this year, we'll see how that works out... _________________ -Adam

Its a 59 semaphore, a few pics from 2007 before & after resto.
Farm found & years earlier added egg blinkers on the back with trailer blinkers on the front, both removed & returned to original.
Love my Mango |
