Hi all,
Just thought I'd tell you about Slough last Sunday - and what I
bought.
It's the first time I've been to the Slough meeting. We set off
at 06:50 in the V6 Caravelle from Manchester and arrived at Slough at
about 09:54 (amy guesses at average speed?).
Basically the place was big, hot and packed with lots of stalls.
This is what I bought for my '64 Deluxe bus:
Front and back overriders.
Front overider tube
One rear overider tube (I still need a drivers side (RHD) rear tube!)
Front Delux bumper trim (short US spec. ones, I need the rear ones)
Two side pop-out window latches
Samba sunroof "Golde" locking handle
Fuse box cover
One genuine rear lens
Two wiper arms and blades
Some stickers (EMPI, Bus Boys etc...)
Box of genuine cab door/tailgate trim panel clips (stainless ones)
A '68 ball joint front beam ! (to lower and fit discs to my '64)
Total cost: $$$$!
There were quite a few bargains about like a very straight 13-window
Deluxe for 3000 pounds (no rust, California import).
My mate picked up some US spec lights for his '61 bus for 15 quid! for
the pair.
What do they say about rear light for a '60'ish -> '64 bus being rare?
There were several sets to choose from ranging from 10 quid (used) to
70 quid (NOS). Also a boxed, NOS Delux clock (the rectangular one) for
200 pounds.
Anyone else get any goodies (I saw wings and w-decks being flaunted) ?
Lee.
