I've owned two buses, but this 70 is my first T1 and I love it. Spent the summer putting it together cuz it was in pieces when I got. But hey, now I know how everything works.

What brand of bumper adapter brackets did you use? Any pics of the back bumper? |

Not sure of the brand, but they're a great build-quality and design the way they drop down, and there's some in/out adjustability on the mounting holes. Everything bolted straight on in 10 mins. Got em 4 for $50 used on here.

| He's a Black Lab/Border Collie mix we got from the pound. Amazingly smart, friendly and he still looks like a puppy even though he's over 14 years old. Best dog I've ever had. |

Anyone else still have original 40yr. old paint on their '70?

Yes, mostly. My wings were replaced and the PO painted them with off white interior latex paint. Sprayed the whole car with no prep while they were at it. I mean no prep, not even masking, in fact, the area behind where the rear plate would be attached is not painted because they didnt even take the plate off.
I am working on getting it back to original as much as i can. If anyone has KobaltBlau wings they want to sell me, even with multiple layers of paint over the OG, i am interested.
