1979 Volkswagen Bus Page 4

Here is a gallery of the bus after it returned from the body shop.  I started slowly re-installing and replacing every part that had been removed. (November, 2004)  The bus received a new headliner, new window seals, new bumpers, all new lights and lenses, wipers, chrome, hardware, all body rubber, basically everything on the exterior of the bus was either restored or renewed.  What a project!

It is nearing completion, I'll let the pictures show what is done and what is left.  I tore one of the window seals when installing a rear side window, a new one is on order.  I'll post more pictures when the Van is finally finished. (Are they ever really finished??)

Update: 12/11/04: The bus now has new white-wall tires, new upper/lower ball joints, new front wheel bearings, new shocks, and all the rubber is finally finished.  Check out a couple of pictures here.

Head back.
