I started a topic on the resto of my bus some time ago some of you may have seen it. i have not updated it for a while due to the fella who was working on it basically ballsed it up, its a long story, one which i will get round to telling some time, the morale of this story is dont trust no one.
anyway i have rescued my bus and have taken it to a new garage, i will post some photos of the various stages, it has got messy with legal wrangles which still have yet to be resolved. Anyway i have my bus back and thats all that matters.
where i stripped it down ready to go for its respray/resto
after months of nightmares how it came back, maliciously vandalised by the fella who was doing the work, due to me asking him wghy it was taking so long and that i wanted it back to take it somewhere else
Where we are at now. The bus really is solid and was a small project, however due to the damage and por 15 paint being sprayed over sand, dust and everything else it was decided to blast it all over
it is now in the hands of a proper old skool painter whos skills are second to none, we have now taken off the time scale we were working to and we are counting our lucky stars we have it back, i have had to buy new cab doors and various other parts due to the old ones being damaged beyond repair, we are accumulating all new parts for it including new bespoke interior and are planning on having a special bus when its finished, we look forward to seeing you in 2010
