I love the bus!!!!! Where can I find one?

Back in the 60s and 70s over spray on hoses and looms were common, as there was no machine to paint it so things weren't perfect. As for the oil leak, if it's only got 2,700 original miles on it, then it hasn't been run much which means that the seals deteriorated. Especially with oil gaskets, the oil keeps it wet, if it rarely ran then oil never kept it wet and it dried out.
