Kuch's 1969 Lowlight Micro


This is my 1969 Lowlight Microbus, haven't worked on it for over a year, the goal is to have it registered in 2 months, probably wont happen, but worth a try! It was a coast car so plenty of rust to be found, but thats ok, just develops the skills a little more!

Thanks fella's, hows the bug going Kev? Sold the splitty Dino?? Must be a better one on the way ;)
Jason, might just be your luck, this one will be for sale once its registered. Nose panel was a klokkenholm panel, not bad, just made incorrectly and need a lot of work to make it fit. That goes for the inner and outer. Thats why i try to make most of it myself, so it fits..

Cheers

Rob,

Your craftsmanship is amazing.

This will be a very solid bus at the end - actually - now!

Well done - should pass rego easy if the brakes and steering are all good.

Cheers,

Scott
