G'day people, Just taking the opportunity to introduce myself. My name is dave Barker and I live in Bathurst, Australia. I been lurking for a bit until my deal to buy two busses was finalised. Now that I have them I can speak. I caught the 'bug' in Jan 94 when I bought a '66 beetle that is now undergoing a restoration. I have now caught the 'bus' since I bought two busses. The first is a '74 bus with no engine, but the deal included two spare VW engines. ( A 1500 and a 1735 big bore kit engine). Along with assorted bits and pieces this cost me $500. It does need work but I dont mind. The other bus is a '54 camper. This currently has 1600 'worked' motor in it but is not part of the deal. The '54 camper without engine is going to be about $300. All I have to do now is buy a car carrier so that I can get them since they are about 50kms from town. Anyway...thats my introduction. Looks like I will be needing help as soon as I get to working on the busses.
