Been back on it for a couple days, got my missing jigsaw piece from Brooksy, the centre window piece, fitted the safari's for the gaps, still need to weld it in, been welding a bunch of bits will grind them tomorrow

Now the following images may cause stress for some viewers so viewer discretion is advised.

check out all that OG paint...........on the floor

Now that it's almost welded up I could be tempted to sell it , body only,or with running gear, or with all with all hanging parts, any combination just call me an haggle a price, Ian 0409696374

How good are these panels, the visual progress is instant!

The roof wont get painted, its got great faded white paint, I'm a bit stuck between dove blue and mouse grey, would like to achieve the look Andrew got on his bus, use a matt agent so its not that shiny, also may not straighten it out too much maybe leave the weld marks in it, but I change my mind so much on this bus that anything could happen, I still remember Stenchy"s bus that was just brown undercoat!

Hatch fitted and engine lid hinges replaced, also finish welding up the engine hatch, its a 58 hatch that I cut off the rusted licence light section and put on a flat piece, sort of like a brake light hatch but not, I have seen this design on a single cab so as the gates don't hit it when they are down, any way didn't have a better one so its on there.
