What's everyone working on ?

[Velgreeno]

Hey folks. Anyone working on anything interesting at the moment on your buses big or small ? Anyone striving to get a project on the road and debuted this year ? If anyone is like me, I'm always looking and pottering around on mine. So far on my list i have to sort a small leak in my sliding door, a few tiny paint scuffs here and there and i have to do a few small jobs on my interior. How about you folks ? .

Mines getting a fair bit of love.

Refreshed the 2276 motor with better flowing heads after I rattled the valve guides loose bare metalled the entire under side and fully repainting body colour because Upol raptor is utter crap and flakes off fitting 2 new inner cills and front jacking points because they had become rather holey ‍ then getting the bed & back seats re trimmed

I need to finish cleaning the roof on the panel so I can take pics but need some polish. Working on the Austin hot rod trying to get jobs done before the car show at the Three Counties in April.

Removed the speedo from my Triumph Vitesse, easy task if your a double jointed midget, sent off to be repaired.

I think this weekend i might start my bus for the first time since prob last November, I'll do an oil change and see what condition the plugs are in. Might even check the clearances if I can be bothered, but I did do that about 6 months ago.

I'll be doing that too in the next few days (oil)

Noticed a slight exhaust leak at No.1 manifold J tube when I was doing some pre MOT checks. Probably explains the slight parp parp parp (not me) I’ve been hearing for a while. Did gaskets all round today and fitted some decent self lock nuts too

Did the rocker cover gaskets as @redgaz54 suggest on another thread. Top tip all good.

Fitting a new cab window winder in Gerda. As a bonus, I managed to open the wee quarterlight window for the first time since we got her . I always thought it was the rivet that was seized, turns out it was another part underneath that was rusted solid!
