Subject:      Heads up for 78 champagne edition bus

BO>This bus had unusual colors. The exterior is 2-tone, brown bottom and BO>brick-red top, with disco stripes painted along the sides. Interior BO>panels are red vinyl with chrome stripe accents. The seats were BO>apparently either red vinyl with brown corduroy panels, or brown vinyl BO>with red corduroy panels, not sure which, as none of the original BO>seats came with my bus. The dashboard, steering wheel, and related BO>plastic bits were a dark, chocolate brown color, NOT black.

I've seen this combo, once, weidest color scheme ever on a new bus, sort of brought back splittie memories. BTW my cocoa brown '78 camper and any late '78-'79 white over brown bus I have seen also carries the brown dash, with brown column cover, wiper and blinker switches. As to the interior panels, GOOD LUCK.
