Title: I think I might have turned BAY! ;) Post by: Lee.C on August 27, 2009, 01:14:02 am Well as the title says guys I am lookng for a EARLY bay window microbus - Its MUST be a 68/69 model (small back lights etc etc)
I would prefer a untouched (never welded) original bus with NO MODS - a deluxe would be cool It must also be a "Tintop" ie NO POP TOPS! although a sunroof would be cool I also have a BIG preference for "Montana Red" and "Palm Green" I do not want a white one, I was hoping someone on here might be able to help I know this is alot to ask but ANY help would be AWESOME Either drop me a pm or email me at monki772003@yahoo.co.uk or even call me on 07824883975 Anytime Title: Re: I think I might have turned BAY! ;) Post by: Rick Meredith on August 27, 2009, 01:16:07 am So you've finally come out of the closet! ;D

Title: Re: I think I might have turned BAY! ;) Post by: Zach Gomulka on August 27, 2009, 17:18:24 pm That's not the one... his name is Dennis, he comes on here from time to time. His is a '69, original blue/white deluxe walk-thru, pretty stock 1600 with an Engle 100. We took a drive up to Jerome (old mining town turned ghost town turned hippie/tourist town) last Sunday in it, what a blast :) He's always on the fence about selling it or keeping it and lowering it...
Title: Re: I think I might have turned BAY! ;) Post by: louisb on August 27, 2009, 17:47:10 pm You need another project like I need a hole in the head. Whats happening with the '66? I guess if you got the bus you could do a Type IV conversion and use it to tow the buggy.

Turning Bay is not just a fashion you know, it requires long term comittment. And think of the consequenses, what are your friends going to say. ;D P.S. They proberbly want to stay in it with you at one point, especially when it pisses down with rain at a drag meet. Frank Title: Re: I think I might have turned BAY! ;) Post by: Diederick/DVK on September 03, 2009, 22:59:34 pm if you go through do you prefer a private sale or not particularly? if not, have you had a look at kieft en klok (http://www.kieftenklok.nl)?
