That colour is special. Don't rush the rebuild, that paint will thank you for letting it go off. The large side panel looks super straight, as always amazing work.

Mirror finish there :shock:

Nice.

I should be up in a few weeks to drop your rollers off. I might have time to have a quick look at your bus too 8)

Dude, tell me, are you still going to be screwing your deluxe trim clips in to that fresh, gorgeous, paintwork? :shock: Or maybe follow the route of the mighty 3M pro double sided tape?

 

[andewilson]

hi, its already pre drilled for all holes required for every thing thats getting fitted. 3.1mm for all delux trim so i can fit it with 3mm pop rivets so as not to cause future ust issues by biting into the fresh paint with self tappers.

had a very busy weekend. saturday i spent the day round the workshop with my 70 year old step dad doing this

the point of no return. the workshop is now no longer a workshop. planning application is in, it is cleared out and work is still in progress turning it into my van funding flat which should see the van fund go up once i get it filled

after that we gave it a right good scrub

as this morning i went round there with my kids and built this badboy

it truely is a monster. alloy poles as thick as scaffold poles and very heavy canvas that needed the ends dutch lacing to the roof section.. it smells too :?

but as of 5pm today my bus is sat nicely in there. though when i got it back i noticed that some builder who had done my dads missis a favour getin something out of the garage has actually scratched my bus :evil: only two inches long and hopefully in the clear coat. but still, i want to kill him.

cant wait to get on with the build now. hopefully sold a set of rims so the cash problem may be over for a while.

heated screen and sound proofing next. then rust proofing begins

 

[Nelly]

SCRATCHED IT :evil: I did say it would happen though!
Nice tent mate

Military style, very stealth. :msn4: What with the colour of your bus you should have put that up in the woods
