Only the the window frames and the rib section of the bumpers to do.

Doesnt look too bad for a 47 year old commercial vehicle.
the body isnt perfect but I didnt want it to be, this way I can drive it and not worry about any minor scratches or marks.
Cheers
Dave

Excellent job! I like the choice of colours too.

That looks an awesome result Dave. Jeez.. I would be tempted to run the BRM's on that any time!!

Regardless, I think the bus looks brilliant, and it must be pretty satisfying after what, 5 years?

Thanks guys.
It is low as it has a set of RobK's dropped spindles and also a straight axle fitted.
It is about three and a half inches lower.

Just waiting for some goodies to arrive, I will post some more pics when it is finished.
