Some nice visual progress in the past two weekends, nearly complete again.

The Door alignment was a TOTAL BASTARD to get close, the A post took alot of adjustment to get everything to close nicely. Gaps are ok but no show car, this bus has done A LOT of miles, she aint plum straight !

Inner dogleg and floor piece went in on Sunday and I tacked the outer on tonight.

Next is the nose and lower windscreen frame, a tricky job again, wiring to dismantle and label too.... busy times.

Unsure on colour, most likely Blue/white , Titan/white , maybe a pastel Blue/white if I'm feeling brave !

Whatever I choose it will be close to factory, nothing out there.

Busy 4 weekends in a row, welds cleaned up, lower nose finished, cab floor stripped and random holes welded. A few smears of fiberglass over some imperfections to be sanded and then a final coat of primer. Nose skin and lower window frame next weekend ... oh Gawd.
