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

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
