Your van looks sweet dude!

Loving the panel on the porka spares though, stance is ace!

Thanks! 8)

I've posted a pic of this panel before:

This was the same show last year. I'm not completely sure the Porker wheels are an improvement, though... :wink:

[Airtime]

Thanks a lot, guys! I am really happy with it! This winter all the welding around the rear arches and some minor work on the cab floor will be done. The welded parts will be spayed as well.

Last night we had our monthly cruise night. Only a couple of EB's arrived:

And mine offcourse:

More pics can be found here. Enjoy!

 

[Airtime]

Update time!

Repaired and painted the rear arches and corners. 8) 8) 8)

Now I really have to polish and wax it... :roll: :wink:

Oh, and happy new year everyone! I might come over to the Volksworld show this year, but I'll let you know when it's sure. :wink:

That looks really nice. I have to get the exact same job done on mine before the show season. Did you use full size repair panels (if so, whose?)or did you just do localised repairs to existing panels?

 

[Grazy]

Looking good Airtime , Yeah come over to Volksworld show join the line up 8)

 

[Airtime]

Hi guys, thanks for the comments. 8) I used these repair panels for both sides:

I think the manufacturer is Klokkerholm.

@ Grazy: When I come over it will be a one-day visit and I'll fly in then.

Been working on the bus last weekend, just a pic:

This is at my work in our (temporary) storage.

The F104 Starfighter is waiting to be picked up by the Royal Dutch Air Force. It will be replaced by a F16. 8)

Soon some new pics of the work I did on the cargo floor:

Offcourse this is before.. :wink:

 

[Airtime]

As promised, some pics of last night.

Some polyester on the left side...

The results of an evening of cutting and grinding:

Have to repair some cross members, but I think it's out not that bad.

That's a damn nice parking spot there makker!

Nice bus, it's almost a shame to do the repairs.
Is the paintjob OG or has it been resprayed?

Thanks dude!

Most of the bus is OG paint, and I like to keep it that way. Only do the necessary repairs. 8)

@ Shaggy: A cut n shut is a good idea! :lol:

 

[Airtime]

I have been busy on the bus, but didn't post any updates...

Well, here you go:

Besides the welding on the floor, I also put in a westy louvred window (because I like 'em!):

I put in my new Empi trigger shifter and a couple of old-skool speakers (the 'balls' hanging underneath the dash):

Then it was time to put new flooring and rest of the interior in:

And offcourse:

:mrgreen:

I'm almost finished. It has to be done for this weekend, when the 'Beautiful Budel' International Bug Show is held. 8)
