Nothing to report of late really, slowed up a bit still with the house move and the fact I had taken my T4 off the road beforehand for engine conversion needless to say I got carried away with that and yes its still in bits lol, back to the Bay.... only real update ive to add is that I collected...

yes thinking of blasting, etch priming then a light coat of stone chip before painting in body colour to seal it up cheers for the reply :-)

Cheers guys, sorry for the late reply, we have been moving house so progress has slowed somewhat, most of the major welding is complete with just bits and pieces underneath to tidy up and floor sections to go back in, considering having the underside blasted to take back to bare before etching...

Cheers, there has been a little more progress on the bus but im yet to get some photos uploaded, im also busy at present doing a tdi conversion on my T4 which is taking up a load of my time :-)

A little update before xmas drivers side door skin replaced, door rehung to align the replacement arch and wheelarch tub :D Front panel and rear arch and corner left to do then will be just small repairs left before I have to decide what colour I am to go with :o Happy Chrimbo and new...

Few more pics to show progress, ive had new door skin fitted to the solid frame doors that I had before the arch and tub was cut out and replaced The more expensive 'better' quality wheel arch panels were definitely worth the extra £££ goes to show it is true you get what you pay for etc...

right so... currently im awaiting to catch up and get some more photos of the progress, because of the previous repairs to the seatbelt points etc I decided to order new arch tubs along with new arches etc, having seen the shocking quality of some of the pattern arches it was either going to be...

With most of the underside solid now (front valance etc still to attend to) we was wondering what the rear arch repair was hiding as it sporting a strange angle :?: If you look at the primer angle that's where its been attached previously??? maybe they didn't have a level or tape and a wonky...

Jacking points and sills fully cut out and replaced :D As you can see we are using Preservation panels which so far have been a great fit and the guage of the steel beats many other replacement panels :) Cab floor time... :shock: slowly coming together ;)

Right I have a little more time to update and try to catch up to where we are now with the bus Chassis repairs old previous repair out re-fabricated and repaired :) At this point I have to say a big thanks to Jason@ Dubs and Classics for his excellent fabrication and welding :D

Well when I first got her I didn't like the colour and have had VW light grey with white roof combo in mind, however since owning her the Sierra yellow has grown on me so I am now undecided still ive plenty of time ahead to make the decision lol :lol:

So now on the jig over she goes and belly pans come off :| All in all could of been a lot worse, chassis sections holed where the bellypans were attached, jacking points previously repaired and not finished off, as with the battery tray etc as said all will be replaced so I know the...

Just a little more info on the bus It was owned by the previous owner for around 14 years with half of that being stored under a carport until I found it. It is a 71 Devon originally a Sunlander finished in Sierra Yellow although the main parts of interior have long gone, looking at first glance...

So finally after having it sit on the drive and also erecting a shelter to prevent her from enduring the winter months I started a search for someone with more welding skills to help and this is when I came across Jason @ Dubs and Classics which after several chats and going to see his work I...

I will update progress as and when I get time, but plans are for a full strip down including the dreaded belly pans and replace any parts that have been previously repaired, rotted or damaged it will be a while lol.....
