so is it done yet ?

mmm won't make valla, no hope of making Dyno day either, unless you count Dave working on it as a Dyno Day ,,,,:lol:

In fact I am thinking my Iguana has more chance of making Valla than your Bus ......

Oh in case you missed my question ... is it done yet ? is it ? is it ? is it ?

Just got home from working on it and have just finished lately all new inner and outer sills on the drivers side and today finished removing all rotten metal from the inner , outer and intermediat sill on the passengers side .
Will have the bus at Dyno Day next sat as is and am hoping to have all new metal in the passengers sill by end of next weekend.
