It's been a while since an update!!
So here goes, Kirsty & I are heading up to Airteriors on Wednesday this week to see Billybob in the metal really excited about seeing the finished article after choosing the colour scheme for the Formica very early on in the build, it's been great working with Nick to come up with a fantastic finish.
I would definitely recommend him to anyone who's after any interior upgrade or complete build, he is a top bloke.
Billybob has been away since 14/08/13 and covered some mileage on the back of Craig's low loader. It will shortly be doing his final low loader journey back home...
Then the credit card, cheque book comes out and the money tree harvest begins again...
Suspension front (thinking Red 9) and rear (CE Spring plates), security, brakes, seat belts, passenger swivel base seat to fit, bumpers to prep & paint, electrics, (leisure battery, split charge) engine plumbing (remote cooler), fire suppression fitting, heating, sounds...the list is still quite long?!?!?
But so pleased with the look of the bus so far..
Here's some before pics
Now the after
The upholstery courtesy of Bromsgrove Auto Trimmers who were superb Pete, Angela and the team are great thoroughly recommend them for any of your upholstery needs....also got a tail gate and windscreen blackout cover which are great. Check out their website for more pics..
The cabinet fit out by Nick at Airteriors has been a pleasure, throwing ideas back and forth his passion and eye for detail is superb, no such thing as a silly idea. Very happy I went to Nick and I hope you agree it's turned out blooming superb, although I am biased.
I really could of cried for the second time in this build when he sent me the finished photo, first time when my motor ran up !!!! No more tears now honest!!!
Please check out Nick's Airteriors Facebook page for more pics, and hit the like button!! There will definitely be more mighty fine buses rolling out of his workshop, that's for sure!!!!
Hoping to get finished for the start of the 2014 season with a little help from my friends Nick & Andrew, and obviously the support from Kirsty. Our Son Finnian is so excited.... Anyway, bye for now peeps. Ben ;-)
