Thread: Hippie style VW bus needed for TV commercial

  1. 06-04-2012 08:45 AM #1
    Greetings. I am currently working on a TV commercial for a US client. We are looking for a "Woodstock, hippie style style bus. It shouldn't be in mint condition, but must run and be licensed. The commercial will shoot in the Toronto area. Shoot date is June 15th.
    A fee will be paid for use of the bus, and it will be insured while with us.
    If you have or know of anyone who has a bus like this, please email me at tonyrobertson2002 at hotmail.com

    Thanks for your help.

    A big shout out to Mitchell who steered me in the right direction. We rented an old Westie from German Supply. I'd post a couple of pics, but I guess I haven't got enough posts, and never will.
    If someone wants to email me, I'll send you the pics and you can post them to this thread.

    Thanks Mitch!

    June Jitterbug this Sunday would have been a great place to source a hippie bus.
