A bus from bad to new
11/07/2024

The icon of the sixties. And also very sought after today. Unfortunately, there is a big difference in quality between German buses and Brazilian ones. Jan came with a bus from Brazil that needed some love…
We completely restored it and reused the parts that were good.

Jan’s bus with new engine, caught up on our engine stand.

And then the engine

After the body was taken care of, it was time for the engine. In itself not a difficult job, but the desire was to give it a little more punch. We built an Airhouse special: 1641cc and a rebuilt larger carburetor. The eye wants something too, and we bolted a stainless steel exhaust underneath.
