Bus is now running and driving

Back at my mates for final rust work, body work and exterior paint . Bus was originally Baronia Brown, but Ive gone a touch lighter with the year correct Prairie Beige.

Hopefully it will all be done around March 2024. Ill keep posting progress pics

I think Ive pretty much got everything for it now. Putting barn door exterior mirrors on it

Ive collected a whole heap of camping items that are 50s and made in Germany.

Trying to keep it as period correct as I can

I have the number plate 36hp for it

Flipped spindles from Pat Brown and straight axel conversion

Ive had a cool as awning made for it from Platinum Trimming in QLD, pretty old style
