My Own Bus Collection
These are my keepers, nothing for sale...
1953 Barndoor Panel Bus, original Dove Blue paint, original company logos from Lido Dry Cleaners of Newport Beach and a sign painter signature from Alred Brothers Volkswagen Porsche in Glendale, California.
1954 Barndoor Standard Microbus, original everything, paint, interior, engine, trans, wheels, and just 32,000 original kilometers (roughly 20,000 miles). Originally used as a limousine in Zurich, Switzerland.
1955 Wolfsburg Kombi, April production, loaded with Barndoor features, original Dove Blue paint, all 3 correct seats, semaphores, slammed with a narrowed beam, Berg adjusters, dropped spindles, straight axle, hot rodded, balanced, and high compression 36hp engine by George Schmidt of the Butcher Shop.
1957 Kombi, original Dove Blue paint with original company logos from "The Model" Laundry Service in Neillsville, Wisconsin, all 3 correct seats, slammed with a narrowed beam, adjusters, dropped spindles, straight axle, and a built 1776 cc dual carbed engine.
1960 Kombi, original L345 Light Grey paint, all original with just 34,500 miles. This Bus was parked in February 1972 when I was just 3 months old. I saw it hibernating for decades, pursued it full force for 11 years, and finally got it. It is incredibly nice, a pure time capsule. I'll likely be buried in this one.
The "Barndoor Roadster". Yeah, we know how to have fun, too. You wouldn't believe how people react to this one around the beach.
and above pictured with the legendary "El Ghiablo". Rest in peace our Green Brother!
1959 Mignonette Green European Beetle with Semaphores and 90,000 original miles. Pulled out of a barn in Idaho after nearly 30 years stashed away, completely revived from head to toe, and out cruising proudly again.
