whats all this then i get harrased for pics, eventually put them up and no response, you all must be down the pub i am guessing as thats the only excuse i will accept :roll:
oh interior shots here you go

ps as said before i dont actually like the interior , too posh for me but its parta thew bus and so we live with it

so was goin to anchor wax today but really couldnt be arsed so wd40 instead for the time being, so theres a bit of a mix here really.

oh and as you are aware i am a ride height nerd , not all pics are on full slam as pain to clean wheels.

Me too 8) but the flip-flop lets it down :lol:
 
yeah the interior needs a clean out thats on the list too, i only found that flip flop yesterday was lookin for that last summer too, thanks for the up on the interior, i cant take any credit for it im afraid its the work of Interior Motive and it is mega money to have done , hence the reason for not replacing, etc i only want a r n r bed really but you cant have everything i guess.

yeah i get a few people at shows comment on it sayin i wasnt expectin that , its normally full of shite and stella and the odd flip flop!!

If I have stolen your thunder by calling my bus the TV bus, my humble apologies fella, spose I could have called it "the Bob Saunder TV repair bus", but thats a bit long winded ;)

Anyway never mind all that.... your bus is AWESOME!! have had a good look at it on numerous occasions and have to say "it rocks"! am loving the twin double bed set up to, very ingenious. enjoy it fella ;)
