Not much on mine, which still looks a lot like this:

and is waiting for me to get the tools, skills and time to deal with the fabrication and welding needed on the rear of the sills:

and the a-pillars:

and under the scuttle:

But it’s not nearly as fucked as that white one in Germany, and was less than half that price.

You need a word with SIC, he's our welding'expert' isn't he ?

Imagine the fun you could have twizzling round on the seat as you drunkenly run over next door's newly block paved drive when they went on holiday.

OK, how the actual gibbering fuck is that worth 17 grand???

 

A combination of it isn't/perceived scene tax I'd imagine. They're not too bad an old bus to be fair, but that's a ridiculous price.

Do you think it has cruise control. Which appears to be my only must have requirement these days.

I think they were a Mitsubishi design that Dodge more or less appropriated, because Chrysler Corp was buying-in fairly heavily from them in the 80s/90s.  My 1990 leBaron had a Mitsi V6.  G427 FKC where are you now?

Is that where the rear spoiler should be on those !?

 

Nice gear gaiter colour choice too.

Yes that's the factory spoiler. I like the wheels.

The pistons could PGW. Believe that engine is fairly notorious for it, sadly.
