This one is an impressive build!
Southern California built and based 23 window Bus
with all the top tricks and parts and even functional A/C!

Completed a few years ago, driven from California to Florida and then
put into very occasional use. Now back in California and ready for a new home.

Classy yet custom and still retaining some vintage style/
Chrome bumpers , pop out window frames and polished body trim.
17" chrome Airkewld wheels with red painted centers.
Safari windows to let in the breeze and of course that big sunroof and skylight windows.
There is nothing else like cruising one of these!
The "One eyed duck" holding the wipers
Red canvas sunroof cover
Chrome bumpers and nose emblem , Euro headlight lenses.
T handle on the deck lid for easy assess without the "church key"
Excellent fit and finish
All new window rubber and body seals throughout.
Restoration done by So Cal Rods and Customs in Temecula California.
The 17" smoothie wheels by Airkewld are awesome!
I love the red centers and the detail painted logo on the hubcap.
Definitely well done and detailed.
This is a factory 23 window roof by the way, not a reproduction.
That red canvas is so nice against the black roof.
Very eye catching!
This Bus did start life as a 23 window from the factory
however its lower half was in very poor shape when found
as it had been modified heavily with a mid engine V8 conversion!
Here is a pic of the beast prior to restoration when found in North Dakota
As you can see, that is a V8 engine jammed in there!
Originally Sealing Wax Red and Beige Grey as you can see.
With the heavy modifications to the frame and floor of the Bus
it was decided the best way forward was to source a solid un-modified lower half
of another Bus and then blend it with the upper body of the factory 23 window.
The work was done with care and precision and the finished product is an amazing Bus
but its not one for the stock "purists" due to that history and the modern custom modifications.
If you are someone that wants a truly unique custom 23 window
with all the best parts and impressive upgrades, this one has it all and more.
So cool
Interior is as sweet as they come and the details do not disappoint!
