It's type 3 long axles , D Butler pro street box and CBB disc's . The disc brakes work well but the hand brake it rubbish, I'm thinking of getting a CSP rear brake package and eventually front.
I can tuck big tyres under it and remove them easily.

Wire wheeled the under body, Etch primered it , seam sealed with Sika and painted with Upol Gravitex . Easy process that should last for years, I hve no idea If I'm doing it right, but this is how it's going to be!
The Gravitex is paintable so I'll put the body colour in the wheel arches and outside of the rails.

Wire wheeling the entire underside is an epic task, it's looking great!

Done a bit lately, 2 weeks on the engine bay and rear engine shelf. Thanks to Bob M for the OG metal for the repair, I have a bit of Pat's Samba in this bus as do others!
I made up Dollies from Bunnings shit, works awesome , should have done it years ago.
Ready for Body now, she's a slow build this one but I'm still enjoying it, nice to take 4 years off the VW scene TBH.

Bro, I love that shot, Rolando sure got this bus out and about. Still tossing around the idea of painting those colours again or the #'s Colours of Sea Blue/ Cumulus White.
