Charlie - My 68 deluxe - now with fresh paint

I like what you have done so far and a bummer about the broken arm......

Hope you can get on with it soon

Cheers Andy, really pleased with the colour choice. I was warned against metallic by so many people but I think it suits the bus well and still looks 'period'. Arm is a bummer but hopefully will be out of plaster 3 weeks tomorrow and I can crack on. After the inevitable stint with physio I guess.

Well, seeing as my arm is in plaster and I cant get on with the 'proper jobs' I thought I may as well have a good go at detailing my wheels one handed. Ive put off starting this for months in fear of fecking it up but after reading a how to in Camper and bus I gave it a bash.

From this:

Anyone else considering doing it. Id suggest going for it. Just take your time and be patient and you wont go far wrong

Something else to add to you CV - a one armed wheel detailer......

Looks spot on in the pictures 8)

That wheel detailing looks great, are they the 17in versions? I want that look for mine one day too.

Did you use any special paint/primer for that?


Cheers, Daniel.
