Awesome work Rusty!

Beatts the Mini workshop on Tobruk Rd St Marys sells awesome stuff called Supa-grip 1000. Pretty good gear by all reports, recommended by experts :wink:

Not a lot of progress lately as we have been going through the final stages of our house build and moved in this past week. Bus progress will be slow over the next few weeks as we get ourselves somewhat set up.

I have got the rear brakes assembled. Hopefully have the fuel tank in soon and the rear back on wheels
