So the final coat is now finished and we decided to go for a non vw colour so apologies to all you purists. It's basically a light beige for the body colour with audi white for the roof and bumpers. Unfortunately it was a rather dull/grey day but I hope you like

 

[THE LAST PANZER]

WOW Stunning fantastic fella keep it up :worship:

It's a great combination to use Rocket Ron and M&D in Street. IMO it's perfect for when you know what you want out of your bus project but either don't have the skills or space to be able to do it yourself and need people you can really trust to do the work for you.

Glad you managed to get a cup of tea out of Ron, more than I ever get :lol:

Look forward to seeing the finished bus
