An on the weekend I got my rear hatch back from the panelbeaters, I bought this off the samba at the start of last year an it sat in the shipping yard till my mate had a container leaving, so this is where I'm up to , it's my keeper bus an I work on it when I can, I'm going to finish the Cubby Hut first

Not quite how i thought you were going to treat it (rat look) but great to see it progressing. Keep up the good work.
Cheers
Nicko

15 windows are the BEST! Looking good mate. We might need to chat about this panelbeater mate....

Hi Nicko, by the time I replaced the front panel, doors, long side, and sandblasted around the windows again there wasn't much paint left, anyway I have never liked the Ratlook, to me it just says 'I'm too lazy to fix the rust'. To me there's only 2 styles, Shiny Bus or Well used an abused but no rust showing, an of course they have to be lowered, I had a standard height bus, worst day of my life!

Back on my bus today, got that rusty piece over the pass door cut out and a patch on the front top part of window, and maybe grind up the front floor tomorrow

Got this roll over jig from Andrew from Nhill, easy to roll over by yourself

got my centre cross braces in today, and welded the shit out of it, floor tomorrow

Hey nice one Ian
Much better to be standing up welding instead of lying on your back
