Filmore 65 SC

Post by Cafe53 »

Ok so I have a thread in Split Bus pics

But I thought I would share a few pics as we clean him up ready for a new working life

We love his current look but a few changes to him ready for work

Looking forward to many years of cruising

It's a step! When the tailgates down it's there to give you a leg up if you need to get up onto the tray :D

Hi cafe 53,

Looks the goods mate,

Was wondering what that step was on my DC,

Could you make up hoops for a DC?

What did it cost for your canopy and who made it?

Cheers
Reidy
