can I ask how long you left the oven cleaner on for and what you used to scrub it off. You got some great results there

gday, thank you, the oven cleaner I used was "Bam" from memory (it's a red can available in Woolworth). I basically just did panel by panel sprayed it on left it for about 5 mins then washed it off with high pressure water. Hope that helps ....cheers Dino....

That looks great. I've just ordered dropped spindles for mine - hope it comes up like yours. Wheels look good too. Are they 112pcd or did you have modify ?

I love the Hotwires, they look awesome.

DakDak67 · 23 Jul 2014, 8:38 pm

Proper. 😵

Mullerbugs · 29 Jul 2015, 1:03 pm

stunning bus mate, i've got one on the way but no where near as nice as yours!

was it just dropped spindles you used or did you get an adjustable beam as well, just trying to gauge what stance I want and best way to achieve it! Yours looks wicked, does it drive ok?

adlbeetle66 · 29 Jul 2015, 2:11 pm

Thank you very much ,unfortunately I let it go and I am still kicking myself.
The bus had a 4 inch and adjustable beam plus the drop spindles and the rear had adjustable spring plates and drop plates ,all round I used short shocks from a beetle.
It drove just beautiful the guy who brought it drove it from Sydney to Melbourne the day he picked it up from me.
I used the kit from AirKewld in the States I know they are not the cheapest but it's a complete kit and I have used the same kit twice and about to order a third kit.
Good luck with your bus..
