Gave the gearbox a clean up and sprayed it too, could have left it I guess.

I cracked it with the cargo doors and bought some Grumpy's doors off Gordon @ All Air Cooled , they are great, just bolted right on up really nice



Now my Rocker didn't line up, so I chucked another on.



High build and block sanding started

I wasn't happy with the RHS front door, I got it flat with bog but it's a bit rough in the frame and not good enough .

Thanks to DSK I scored a 99% rust free PMG door. Sanded it to metal skimmed some dings and she's fitted up really nice too.



This is where I'm up to as of now, so I'll keep blocking this side till I'm happy.

wow looking great mate, glad you liked the Cargo Doors

cheers

Gordon

Good work, must be satisfying chipping away bit by bit.

Soon you’ll be at the end of the road and just cruising.

Looks shit. Hurry up n paint it.

Great update, this bus has come a long way

Thanks lads, yeh it’s come along really nice, I’ve taken lots (LOTS) of time to make the details as good as I can .

My engine is next in line to be refreshed with my builder.

I reckon I’ll run out of money just before paint which is shit timing , will have to pump out the over time at work .

I ha e a month off work coming up soon, I hope to primer and block most of the car , I wish i had more skills in that area so it’s learn as you go.

I change my mind a bit between the M code Sea blue / Cumulus white and something a bit custom, I want to stay with solid colours so no metallics like last time. I'm really keen on this black white Deluxe combo but everyone I know is trying to talk me out of it, I don't know of any Deluxe Black / white Buses, would be fkn sweet.

I got a good compressor a few months ago, 326l free air runs the 3m sander I scored from work pretty well. I had to get the house power board all redone for a 15amp plug but It 's worth it to have good air.

These tools make it all so much easier at home , smash through the filler and primer.

Nice work! Good job posting to the forum too.

Looking really good. I would personally lean towards the original colours or colours available in the year of manufacture. If you do go for the lower black would you consider an off white top half?

Looking great mate

Wasn’t there someone on here who had a 11’ bus shiny black / Weiss combo ? Shipped it NZ ?
