Nice looking good. Funny cause I started to polish mine a while back, really hard to work through the oxidation and just got a tiny bit done. But started again this week and almost finished one side - well worth the effort
 
Looking good mate, windows look sweet! Taking the square to Somerset next week so Shiz gone all been well, then straight on with the bus, at long last! should be on the deck by Vegas!
 
Hello again all,went to big bang last week on a mission to buy bits for bus,didnt get as much as wanted to as no real good stuff there,so spent all my money on getting rat arsed !!
Its been a busy week at the lock up got quite a bit more done ,really taking shape now,made up with how she is looking,but again still fair bit to do !!! :D :D
Been busy on the old woodwork side of the game,made a bit of a cargo area out of the back,think suits it to be fair,and well practical for sliding stuff in and out !!(cases of ale )....

the looks incredible!

i think this bus is going to be a show winner for sure 8)
 
Just want to say thanks for all the nice words guys,very much appreciated,before wafflin on too much want to say that many of your buses have been of huge inspiration to my build ,you lot have some killer rides too !!It has been a much bigger job than i thought it would be,i guess its just ran away a bit as they do !!its the first real big job ive took on,and im very happy to say the least,its not perfect,as im sure some will be eager to point out,but i was only out to build a bit of fun ,and mostly something that will be used to the max !So lookin forward now to bringing her out,and maybe meetin up with a few of you guys at some point !!Take it easy all D...... :D :D
 
F***in Rad dude , a 3 piece headliner is bad enough to put in let alone even attempting a one piece one :shock:
You get a prize from me for that !! :party0047: :worship:
 
Looks amazing Dave :D

Nice to see a different wood shade other than birch ply that works really well. Loving the wood slats in the rear luggage area. Really neat idea 8)
