Exterior
Bus has been professionally modified to a safari-style truck. Zebra print paint is in good shape and paint overall is very thick and durable. Canvas side curtains can be raised and lowered as desired, or entire canopy can be removed. Curtains for the front windows are also removable. Interior
Roll cage to supplement removed body panels is well constructed with beautiful welds at the seams. Passenger area has diamond plate flooring which is both sturdy and durable. Storage box at the front is lockable. Passenger seat lifts to reveal dual batteries and auxiliary charger. Zebra paint job continues onto the gas tank. Several storage places can be found throughout the interior including a space behind the drivers seat which also houses the stereo system.
Mechanical
Engine starts and runs well, running gear appears to be completely upgraded or overhauled. Dual Webers give this bus a surprisingly good amount of power. An external oil cooler has been added. Zebra paint job continues onto the engine. Undercarriage also finished in diamond plate.
This “Z-Bus” is certainly unique and is very well built. Definitely a head turner and fun to drive.
