I had 2 exhaust fans going, cant catch it all as it lays down onto the floor! I think of it as floor protection.. The pics of it just painted look dusty because of the overspray on my phone haha
The last bit of rust that i've been avoiding all along, though it came out rather well, just hate mig welding that's all, couldn't use the oxy because I couldn't get behind it due to the door framing.
Now for the rest of the parts to be primed and painted! So then assembly can begin!! I need a shaft for the wiper mechanism if anyone has one? Or a whole dead wiper system??
Re ringed and cleaned up the engine, gasket kit and carby kit through it
Cut some carpet for the rear
Dad doing some contact glue work, doing all the underlay and the vinyl on the pillars and sliding door
Mate came over to do the headliner for me
Dropped it a little, ended up getting 2 new front tyres as the ones that were on there had been driven on flat and stuffed the side wall, these were second hand tyres from another bus I bought, the ones in this pic are still the old ones, the new ones are slightly higher profile and had to adjust the height on the front
Couple speakers
And it's registered! Blue slip was done on monday and got the number plates today, just waiting for the full interior door card kit to come now
Cheers Fellas, This one will definately be for sale, i'd like to get another car on the road before hand, though if it sells it sells, so just let me know when you'd like to pick it up Kev??!!
The window sticker was on it originally and thought i'd keep some of the history with it!!
You covered all the bases here, inlcuding body repair, prep & paint, ride height adjustment, and interior refurb.
These busses can really be a paint to even re-fit all the bits especially if they were taken apart a long time ago - finding the right bolts and screws etc can be difficult - especially when they get pilfered for other vehicles.
