| Thanks Paul and Earl. I can't imagine being any happier than I am with the results. The work she did on Pauls Westy curtains and the headliner in his '58 15W is just as nice. Trust me when I say to hit her up with any future upholstery work. You won't be disappointed! |
Looks awesome Joey! The final touch on such a beautiful bus. |

Can't believe he turned down $60k US!
I guess I gave my '58 away.

Made in western Germany is the plaque |
And that shouldn't be there, maybe they re-positioned it from up by the VIN plate for some reason?

My Aussie pgsg has the made in Germany tag on the passenger side. Sorry for the bad pic, will have to get a better one. U can see it on the upright.

The suction cups, of course!
Good question, I think that sort of rack usually has some straps that run to the rain gutter.
I know the old suction cup rack I had on my '55 Kombi had little straps.

Here is my PGSG Bus. It was totally a barn find (less than 4 km away of my house).
I want to use this opportunity to ask if all the PGSG buses came with the "changed" stripes colors. I mean those lines with the inverted colors all around the body. If my bus had them, they are gone. Thanks!
Btw, have you ever seen those guards on the bumpers?
