1970 Michigan Missile.

Rear valance next up, some kind sole had chopped the skirt off.







Then the windscreen aperture and the roof.








That brings us somewhere near upto date, Midland Paintwerks are doing a fantastic job on the bus and it will transform it completely.

Thanks Cornish,
I'm over the moon, I had chosen to use midland paintwerks after seeing their work on the bus in this thread http://forum.earlybay.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=42741&start=100" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and then a visit to them in my bus.
They are top people producing quality work.

There are loads of images I need to upload as I'm some way behind with this thread. I have had the Westy back a while now and and very pleased with the workmanship.
Time to get sound deadening.

Drew and Stuart at Midland Paintwerks have done an outstanding job on the bus, the colour match is flawless thanks to their keen eye and like minded paint supplier.
The extent of damage to the panels really was bad and far worse than first thought but despite this the finish is top class. Thanks guys.

While the bus was away I cleaned up one of the westy windows and installed new seals, unfortunately when I got it back together it became apparent the gearbox is very worn in it so I have orders 2 new ones.

I'm now halfway through the other side, if I remember i will take a photo next time I'm out in the garage.
