post WW2 photo of Tokyo citizens using war damaged buses for temporary living residences

Disabled buses that have littered the streets of Tokyo are used to help relieve the acute housing shortage in the Japanese capital on October 2, 1946. Homeless Japanese who hauled the buses into a vacant lot are converting them into homes for their families.

All types of interesting things show up in the parking lots, it's worth looking through to see what showed up there as well as in the show area

 Either Chip Foose drove in, or too many people are copying his style

Love it, looks like, an old bus mated with El Toro Loco the Monster Truck

Bart has a cool site about Samba's, and most other VW cool stuff at Barts57.blogspot.com

this is just the booklets that came with his '57... lucky guy! http://barts57.blogspot.com/2011/03/1957-manual-for-my-57.html the service manual, the VW dealership map, and the owners manual

Foose and Overhaulin transformed a 23 window VW... and it looks great.

A couple things that Chip and company did, they removed the great big VW from between the headlights (not a good idea) and relocated the turn signals below the headlights (great idea!)

Really great extensive gallery at http://www.oldbug.com/foosebus.htm
