yep, i echo everything said, great work log and an awesomely sweet ride at the end of it! it was interesting to see how you treated the paint :msn4: .

i love it! 8)

Yeah, I found that oven cleaner will remove spray primer off the OG paint, and not damage it. I still need a buff an polish job, but I'd rather be ratty than resprayed. With some elbow grease, it pretty much came right off with the steel wool, EZ off and some towels. Well worth the work in my opinion.

Thanks guys!

Very nice bus indeed.
I guess is the same as mine, a montana red 69 deluxe.
Have you measured how much you have dropped it?

Keep up the good work.

 

[Kirk]

I never did. But if you measure yours and tell me where you measured from (bottom of bumper, etc) I'll measure mine and we can compare notes.

Hi Kirk,

That's how I measured mine.

Current reading is 54.5 cm which is about 21.45 inches.

That is beautiful. Out of my price range, but gorgeous!

 

[DadWagens]

Yeah it was out of my price range too but appears solid.

Anything going on lately with your bus?
