Baja Bus at Big Bang 08

Saw this at Big Bang in the Show & Shine.
I didn't speak to the owner & I don't know who's it is. I did leave a VWKD calling card though.

Engine is a 1.9 Diesel.
Front winch was grafted into a modified bay bumper.
I love the night heater Grin

Enjoy

(note small deflector)

(dig the slippers)

'78 Bay, 2 litre 091 box, EJ20 NA & the ashtray's on the 'right' side.
I don't lean forward for hills any more Grin

Bugger, missed out on "Live fast, die young"

Great work on the winch I have to say.

Sorry guys, I really don't have any info on that bus
Hoping they'll join us over here - I did leave a "calling card" *crosses fingers*

The worrying part is... it stated it was a "Professional convertion"
