Awesome pitures of an awesome bus! :D 'Pm'd you'.

Nice Deano! Been so long since you last posted about your van I thought maybe you had done-a-bunk....... turns out you had.... a cab bunk :lol: :lol: :lol: Dan

Ground the weld for the panel join back flush this weekend: Then etch primed all the bare metalled panel joins: Once dry I carefully forced panel joint/seam sealer between all the joins and then cleaned off all the excess, this took ages? I haven't applied any skim of filler over the...

Somehow posted the same update twice? Not sure how to delete it so over typed it with this random message......

Excellent... another Crossover... you're in good company here :D Welcome and very nice bus!

Nice work and some great fabrication too! Ref your question regarding advice or pictures for the nearside B post and inner wheel well..... I've repaired this same area on my van..... now don't get me wrong - I'm no expert (far from it :roll: ) and therefore couldn't promise that what I've done...

Love it!!!! Looks even better with all the bits going back on! :D :D :D :D

Touch down! Excellent work dude, looking great and bet it feels great to get it back on it's wheels! :D

The nut near the centre could be the original grub srew and nut for locating/securing the leaf springs?? Judging by the welds, my guess would be its a cut-n-turn..... but wire brush it all down and take some closer pictures of the centre sections of the top and bottom tubes and then post them...

Thanks Gareth, I spend a lot of time trying to the best of my novice ability to make repairs look as factory and as invisible as possible....... truth be told I think I have a medium to advanced case of OCD!!! :oops:

Would have like to have gone to Stanford today but thought better of it and got back to work on the van: Doesn't look like much progress but took the best part of 7 hours to plug weld the entire inside edges of the middle side panel, then the outer sill, and finally carefully seam weld the...

Now that's what I'm talking about..... fresh Neptune Blue rocks! Can't wait till mine gets to this stage.... if it looks half as nice as this I'll be well happy as that looks super straight and super shiney!!!! Love seeing fresh paint and especially this colour (but I would say that)... made...

Nice work!..... you'll be rolling in no time :D

Well done Doug... really nice write up and also good to get a feature on a Danbury!!!

Thought as much.... sun was on my screen when I last looked and I couldn't tell? Looking at it now though I can see the white.... and the shine! Looks great, bet your well pleased :D

Looking good! Is that white or grey primer... I can't tell from my screen? If primer what colour top coat you going for?

Prepared and then tacked into position the middle side panel today. Just need to finish plug-welding the inside edges of the panel and the bottom edge of the outer sill before finally fully welding the panel join and grinding it flush. Fit is pretty good but this panel will need a bit of...

Loved this as it is same colour as mine and looked hard as nails withe the centrelines: However if I could have driven one home it would have been this one all day long... loved it:

Thanks Nelly, means a lot coming from someone with your skills. I would have just done the half panel had it not been for all the damage that was hidden on this side.... certainly would have been a lot simpler and much much cheaper! Cheers :D

Great work..... show us some more!!!!
