Hello everyone:
My name is Zach, I live in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA. I have been building a custom RHD beetle for the past 4 years. Now I have bought my first bus - she is a 1967 11 window walk thru. My plans are for a complete stock restoration.
The Beetle
The bus
Will be asking lots of questions since I'm new to buses.

G'day everyone. Thanks for the welcome.
Its not a sticker on the window, it is sand blasted into the glass.
Its a very dry bus. The left rear quarter has been hit. A metal buddy said it could be popped out and smoothed out. No need to cut and weld that. The only rust is on the floor behind the side door latch thing in the floor.
Will post up more pics once I get it home.

It's all fun and games until the strippers call the cops.
VW's aren't just cars, they're like children, expensive, irritating, unreliable and a pile of fun I wouldn't trade for anything!
If it is not steel, it's not real

Oh yeah, everyone around here freaked out when they saw the etched glass.
My bus has no running gear. Will the rear running gear from a 61 Single cab work in my bus. I got it for free, drum to drum.
