What's more interesting is the double cab in front. That is the old Race Shop bus, once owned by Darrell Vittone! All it needs is the correct McPeak/Molly paint job.....

Dean, not that I don't believe you... but how can you tell that's Darrell's old Type 2 crew cab? You've got an awesome eye! It appears to have re-registered Cali plates, so HOW?

Dean has secret spy's that see all and know all. The plate is off another 68 bus. It was at Nick's and the right door was sanded down so one could see the old paint job underneath.

Cool! So... who owns that Bus, now? I agree with Dean; it needs the correct McPeak/Molly paint.

But, wouldn't it be cooler than cool to sand the white off the top all over and unearth the old paint rather than having it all repainted - it'd be a shame to have it look like a replica. |
