Just the cab floor to weld??
Are you keeping the black band round the middle??

I drove "Taypic's " import bus home from Leeds vw festival a few years ago, a money spider fell out from behind the sun visor on the A19 I used all 3 lanes in about 2 secs, wouldn't care but the bus had been in this country for 2 years already!! :lol: :lol:

Love it 8) what's your plans? Repaint? :msn4:

 

[rusty]

leaving the outside paint alone, lowering but not going mad, painting the under side , inside floor engine bay, in the o.g montana red.
refresh of westy units, recovering seats, new roof lining.

 

[roland]

I like your plan...

 

[gninnam]

Easy project :mrgreen:

Looking forward to the next pics....

8) Liking the bus, any more updates or photos ?

 

[rusty]

wot started out as just lower it and get it on the road, has turned in to a mini restoration.
like fully detailing the under side, on the roll over jig.

 

[rusty]
