Which bus is this thread about again? Oh that's right. Bit hard to keep track sometimes, can anyone say 'hijack'? Back on track.

Looking good Klaus.
Squat, place chin on chest, tuck head and tip forward, shoulders connect with ground and back follows through, legs go over the top and feet land on the ground. That's how I roll!

:) d/side dogleg almost done and floor in , royce dropped in and got front pass door fixed up with locking strip fitted and door frame bolted in with more than the previous 2 bolts and all drums painted , also got a good headstart on gearbox removal and engine has been out for a week now with flywheel off to find leak which looks like its coming from the case halves above the cam plug . Royce has taken interior to get another copy made and front seat fixed up.

Those internal corner welds look like a bastard to do...

Easier to clean up with your hand-held linishing belt...? (saw it on the floor in one of the pics...)

Must have understanding (or deaf) neighbours to not not hassle you about all the grinding/cutting going on at your place .... :)

neighbors are cool they play willie nelson and kamahl full blast and the others have parties till 4am , I stop noise at 6-7pm and shed doors are always shut.
for cleaning welds i use small air grinder with cut off discs and the small linisher/belt sander and flapper discs on the grinder. always a fun job.
