FTR: Full disclosure. Never wanted to post anything in this thread that was not a legitimately original logoed bus. But a photo migrated over here. No big deal. Figured I'd show the process. Before starting, I thought, make the lie so big (Campagnolo) that anyone inside the cycling and VW worlds would immediately realize it had to be a forgery. As far as I'm concerned, I took a boring old panel and built a really neat bus. It was fun.

Sort of like Long-roofs' old Schwinn bus. Fake logos, but very cool nonetheless.

Check out this Sliding door Sunroof Standard Microbus with roof rack and interesting ladder. Looks like a '65 to me - pre-66 decklid + pointed rear bumper
Anyone know what the logo on the door indicates?

“Deutsches Fernsehen” : German Television
“Sender Freies Berlin” : Radio Free Berlin
Sender Freies Berlin (SFB) (English: Radio Free Berlin) was the ARD public radio and television service for West Berlin from 1 June 1954 until 1990 and for Berlin as a whole from German reunification until 30 April 2003.
Cool logo:

I think that is a really cool find. Mayflower is/was a big moving company in the East, those big assed trucks are well know in New England, it would be cool to see a Bus done up in that style, like the UPS Bus or the Greyhound Bus......
