Thanks lads.
The engine rebuild is finally I way after 8 years which I’m very happy about .
New brakes and hard lines are in , wiring next .
I’ll need to book in a trimmer soon, I have some ideas about seat design and colours , going to step it up but keep it period correct.

If this motor’s going to the same effort of what you did on the body….. it’s going to be very nice
Looking forward too seeing this bus rip around one day.

It’s going to pretty stout, still 84x90.5 but with lots of Berg and other top quality parts. Stephen Natoli is building it , I’m very happy for that . Cheers

Brakes bleed and Handbrake finished, had to make extended cables out of 4 cables, PITA. External trim all but done, most of the wiring is in too.

Soon to buy rubbers and fit new glass thats being cnc cut now. Looking forward to building up the door tops and getting the whole car in Glass.

I’m replacing all of the lights , only the indicators were OG and they don’t really suit a new build .
The engines next to spend the money on, I reckon lights will be last unfortunately
