iain's 55 kombi
resto
chassis number 20-121-111
I bought the bus from point break
international. it was imported from Finland. I'm still to find out exact details
on it, but know its a march 1955 (non-barn door). Now undergoing resto at my
home near Market Harborough. It's left hand drive, cargo doors on the left.
Standard micro bus interior.16" wheels, same as barn door. Needs a fair bit
of welding. Going for the resto cal style. slammed, polished empi 5's, roof
racks etc think it will be original blue and white. So far have stripped it down
to the bare rolling shell. any day its going for a full blasting to remove any
traces of rust and to leave me with good metal to weld to. Will be doing nearly
all the work my self as have been in the body trade since I left school.

Here is the latest pictures. Shots of the bus
returning after blasting and cutting the old floor out and fitting the nice new
one. This includes, new complete cargo floor, 3 new top hats, 3 new tee piece
cross sections, 6 new outriggers, 4 new jacking points, 2 new inner sills, and
the 2 floor pan halves. the loading door side, outer sill, b post lower skin,
small lower quarter panel, the forward closing panel and bulkhead lower corner
sections.
