[Clem]

Stripped my interior out last night, wood side linings the lot. Its all good in there so will be rust bulleting, waxing, making up some new side liners and refitting with a new floor.
Then got some rear corner tidying to do before going underneath to protect and preserve ... that should take me to spring I reckon?
Got some deluxe bumper trims to fit, some wheels to get coated and a number of other stuff on the cards too ... best get cracking ....

Will be giving my van an MOT this week while back home so hopefully she will be back on the road. Thats the first thing this year.

The rest of the year will aminly be all engine work :lol:

Fit some dual carbs - Easy's posts about his Weber ICTs have inspired me to get on the phone to CB Performance in the US. With the dollar/pound exchange rate being so much in our favour it would be rude not to. May possibly upgrade to a 1776cc lump - any advice on suppliers would be most welcome. Other than that, get hold of some Rust Bullet and attack the underside.

 

[baron]

tickling with the lowering stick

wavering about narrowing

maybe some twin carbs

paint the chip in the front panel

add lots of stickers and decals

religious icon overload in the cab

california republic flag bus bra

I'm planning on doing the missus in the bus this year! :lol:

But before that I've gotta fit 4 new arches, 2 rear corners, a lower front panel, a windscreen repair panel (inner and outer), new outriggers, jacking points and cross member, weld the holes in the floor, fix the bottom of the sliding and cab doors, build an interior from scratch, paint the thing inside and out, lower it, and fit some wheels. The engines good at least :wink:

 

[Justin & Muttley]

Jabbo - my bet is that you'll be too tired for any 'Naughties' after all that repair work! LOL

 

[slammedkustom]

i will mainly be taking a grinder to my bus, putting a tailgate back in it, new battery trays and lower corners, fabricate a removeable rear valance, new rear bumper and mounts, fit the subaru, re paint it, re trim it, new rear lights, new trick engine lid.....
