Shortened up the Gerson panel, it was 10 mm too long, and then test fitted the rear up again, something going on with the valance tho, seems a bit too bent, I’ll try a BBT one

Started to patch up the floor with whatever bits of floor I have, bit of welding and grinding to do but it will work
Also going to use the old separation panel

Mate outstanding work
Absolutely killing it
But I am concerned with one thing
U have pretty much built this bus from the ground up like jigsaw puzzle but I see I might have to come over and give u a hand to unscrew that 1 pop out window that u have taped so it doesn’t get grinding or weld marks
I’ll let u know when I’m over again and I’ll bring my screw drivers

Keep the updates coming
Because we are all enjoying the progress

That window I doubt will come out without damaging it, and because I only have 2 of those special Dual Cab pop outs I think it can stay where it is, I’ll still be able to get the rubbers on it
Got the front floor from Gordon yesterday so I might fit that today, got up early today to get another 5mins in

Come on Wiz, your build has become part of my days fulfillment, it's disappointing when there is no updates..
