Well guys, after some initial work on the bus after it arrived, I didn't touch it for 3 months or so. Then with doing 72 hours a week at work, time was in short supply so, I've been doing what I can, when I can. Some of you will have seen on Facebook anyway but, this is where I'm at :)

I started to remove the crappy white paint job, then got bored lol. It's not really needed to get it on the road!!





Then on to the welding, in no chronological order.



































On to the lower windscreen









A few other bits too :)




















































It didn't come with a motor, so I built a new one :)



















 
All that & 72 hrs a week!!!! :shock:
Your making me look lazy!!!!!
Or perhaps it's my laziness making me look lazy??!! :?

As for removing old respray, I sanded the red off my Splitty with 500 on the DA then 800 wet by hand!!!!
 
Cheers fellas :)

Gas1man, cheers dude :)

Slammed72, Paint removal is with nitromors believe it or not :shock:

Lee, 4 x 12hr days and 2 x 12hr nights, 4 times a week at the gym and 2 girls under 7 when my mrs is at work, it's getting a bit much now lol.
