Absolutely incredible workmanship and vision for the end result!

Most would cringe (including me) and walk away.

One thing I just noticed. It appears to be left hand drive but the cargo doors are on the left, with none on the right. Is that common with such an early bus?

Never walk away from a barndoor in the woods!

Left drive, left load was a Swedish thing.

Stunning work Florian. Well done.

I love the fact you even have beer crates and bottles from the original "buyer".

Greetings from South Africa!

Just reading through this thread. This is similar to a moon landing in terms of planning and execution. I love the helicopter rescue at the start of it, followed by the makeshift lift when the pilot couldn't get it on the trailer. Never seen anything remotely like this.

I am very interested to see how you go about fixing the roof. I have a similar problem on an old car I am restoring, where the roof is caved in like that. Any rate, will watch for updates.

Really amazing and inspirational work going on here.

Chris

Sorry if this is a dumb question but where is the semaphore on the left hand side?

Lazaa · Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2015 12:27 am Post subject:

Thanks for the nice words Smile

Caleb0101 : this is because I replaced the original B pillar by a NOS 55-61 B-pillar without semaphore hole. I will have to graft the original section on it Idea

Is there any update on this? Seems like it been silent here for ages now

Spike0180 · Posted: Mon Feb 20, 2017 7:30 am Post subject: Re: The Barndoor from the swamp

Agreed. Any updates? Your work looks top notch.

WOW. I just read this entire thread. I saw the rescue video a year ago, but did not know about this thread. I am blown away.
