Looking very very good! 8)

Looking spot on.... Well done you! 8)

Thanks Zedbed, much appreciated ;)

Does anyone know the original colour name/code for the removable firewall that separates the engine bay and the fuel tank..... its a grey colour but I can't find any details anywhere of exactly what it is? :roll:

Neptune Blue does indeed rule.... but then you and I would say that! Your bus is looking awesome by the way! ;)

Hi Ande, I'm aiming for next spring.... but will be happy if I can get it sorted by mid summer latest? What about you?

Hi All, I'm still here.... just been lurking in the background for a while as I've had little progress of my own to update you all with...... I've been rather consumed with my now 6 month old son! I have been doing bits on the bus here and there though, I bare metaled the front panel to check...

......... and I'm spent! Looks great.... so pleased for you :D

Great to see some colour going on.... and what a great colour too! I do get very excited when I see fresh Neptune as it gives me a taster of what I have to come. Make sure you keep the pictures coming as I'm probably as excited as you are to see the exterior painted shots! Dan :)

14.5635 secs! Very well done, gutted I wasn't there at the weekend as would like to have seen that. Defo think there is a 13 on the horizon! :D

Nooooooooooo This would just be my worse nightmare.... So so sorry for you :cry:

Can't believe I missed this one until now. Just read from start to finish and am amazed... Not to mention very very jealous... Especially of that paintwork, which is top class by the way!!!! Keep the photos coming!

14.3 That is amazing! With practice you'll be in the 13's for sure! Don't think I'm gonna make it to Big Bang so make sure you update us with how you get on! Cheers Dan

ahh yes.... page 23! It will look awesome! You gonna go for the same colour all over or contrast it with a different roof or top half? I'm excited for you... and will be watching and reading with much interest, keep us posted! Cheers Dan

Hi Nelly, thanks for the advice, need all the help that I can get, so all pointers much appreciated. The block I have now is about 16" I think... so sounds like I'll need to search out something a bit longer... story of my life ha ha ha! :lol: Great work on the front panel... bet Ande is well...

Hi and thanks! :oops: Yeah sorry there's not been any update from me for a while as the wife and I had a little boy in Feb so inevitably the Bus was on the back burner for a while. Begun to find a bit of free time here and there now to get back on with it so will look to resurect my thread...

Coming on great! Any more pics and progress updates? Also do you mind me asking what tools and techniques Nelly is using to sand/flat the large side panels, as I've just started this on my bus and it's no easy task? Having seen Nelly's arrow straight bus at Volksworld and now these pics of the...

How funny..... I must admit that it was the last thing I expected to see parked out front... but so glad it was! I went in that ski shop, so who knows we may have actually spoke without you knowing I'd just been stalking your bus! Dan Ps. Can't seem to view the pictures you've posted today...

Looking very tidy under there..... top job! If you don't mind me asking, where'd you get the new belly pans from? Cheers ;)
