WOW! That is one good looking westy! Great job on the floor and panels. I'm in the states but how did you find the white baltic birch panels? I'm not sure that we can get the white over here and I really want to do mine too. Awesome bus!
 
Thanks for the positive comments :D :D

@71whitewesty, i just used baltic birch plywood in B/BB quality and treated it with 3 coats of clear satin gloss floor varnish, this varnish has a build in UV filter but it's getting a little darker now by the sun.


@monkeyvanwestybike
I will swap it for my ex British Airways Ford Fiesta ?
Very very tempting mate :mrgreen:

Today i finally fitted my firetec system, lets hope i never need it
And the Gene Berg (bus) breather came on, this is a very nice fabricated part :D , now i have to make a connection to the second air filter so i can breath trough 2 filters.

A few shots i took today after changing the engine oil and testing the new berg breather box.
The breather box seperates the air and oil perfect now, way better then the original oil filler.
And i'm loving the new stance :D
