Know nothing, but learning fast
Here are some picture of my first split before work begun. Will try to keep updates coming.
All advice and recommendations welcome, need all the help I can muster.

Keeps telling me they are too big... even once compressed. Ideas?

Upload in photobucket, select the pic file and post it. There's a few threads on posting photos.

Looks like a super solid base to start with! What's the plans? Leaving it "ratty" or full blown shiny resto?

Re: Know nothing, but learning fast
Way better starting point than my bus, nice find. First thing I would be doing is starting to hunt for a bulkhead if the OG one was hacked out. They can be tricky to find and I know some of the "usual suspects" who stock that sort of thing want $800 so keep an eye out for anyone cutting up a bus (doesn't happen too much these days). Where in Adelaide are you?

Re: Know nothing, but learning fast
Nice bus looks solid is it South African build?, that would explain the bulkhead and lower vents
