Im not sure exactly what types of seats went with this type of van, as I am a fairly new van owner. Also, if anyone has any info. about my style bus, it would be great to hear about it!

big rush on now for my 1st trip, Tatton in Aug. plenty of late nights at the moment. Saw your bus in volksworlsd tonight.looked great at the Pod
07/17/03 Rikki James Try using a sharp wooden spatula next time, you wont have to send the bus back to the body shop if you make a slip:)

narrowed bus rear end
The narrowed rear end project of the double cab took a bit more time than I thought... oh well. Sure, the flames added a few more weeks!
