Subject:      40' Breadloaf Buses, Phoenix  (f)

The local city mass transit type buses have various paint schemes for various products. One of these babies has an excellent rendition of an entire loaf of bread as produced by either the Holsum or Rainbow Bread Co. It looks just like a loaf off of the shelf but only 40 feet long! All I can see is a '50-'63 Panel with the same paint job. Now THAT would be cool! =). I will try to get a photo of it and include it in the (yet to be created) VanBondo web page that will happen after the Resto from Hell is in the bag.

I have an idea for a paint job for the '57 Single that is rattling around in my head. It would be very appropriate to both VWs and a commercial carrier. I think I will do up a professional proposal and try to get corporate underwriting for the next paint job! Paying for it yourself sucks! The actual concept will be revealed much later and would definitely "mess" them up at the shows and on the streets. Hee hee. Otherwise I will continue with the rust and Krylon forever. The concept would definitely let people know that I am a real serious individual. ;-) Definitley will do my own body and paint this (potential) next time and see what I learn. I will probably learn that you oughta buy a vehicle that doesn't need paint. -ellis\
