we sold the interior years ago (didn't realise/appreciate what it was) we wanted something that didn't look so old

gotta laugh or cry

yeh I've been meaning to do a thread on our bus, didn't want to temp fait whilst being in a cheque book resto so was going to wait till it's in paint and I take over.

Wow, Dion, a lot of work there.

Looks like you have a great start there now Dion. Youll have a great time sticking on metal from here. Have fun

A great start Dale? i think about 80% metal will be cut from it the way im goin..
haha

it is a good start, an the finished product will be the prize. not in a rush tho.

Andy, i have one sparkler, an i think thats all i need, so rat this one it will be.

But if you're replacing so much metal why not make it pretty?
Won't cost any less.
