65 Microbus from WA

[SPRIGGO]

ok folks , thought i'd make a start on the build thread, i finally got stuck into my split today, sold my 77 bay so funds are now getting put into this

PLAN: Get it solid and back on the road again, i don't want no show pony just solid , rust free semi ratty body. Dropped front and back on 17" rims but it has to be usable. family of 4 and a dog it needs to get me places.

Build Time : 12 months maximum from now but i'm sure it'll be done much quicker, i don't like to drag things out

few pics of the big clean, degrease today, left in the sun to dry now back in the shed and up in the air and work has began tonight.

feel free to give comments, advice and opinions where you like
