Nooice, what look are you hoping for? Any ideas at this point?

It's been a while but things are finally happening... BIG thanks to Tinbits..
has had a slight hit of Zenith Blue, nice coat of KBS on the floor, will be getting safari's front and rear, and just general clean up for now. Trying for a look of a 40+ year old van, not too shinny not too ratty..

Thanks guys, how good is it..!!!
If only it was mine. This very very fine man cave belongs to a friend of mine Ian, aka Tinbits..

He is the man I have to thank for helping get the panel on the road..

Nicely spotted scotty, they would be cool.
The panel is only just painted, very light coat of original Zenith blue, don't worry he's not going to be looking too new. Ian, aka Tinbits has got a few tricks up his sleeve to age him a bit..

Pics soon, promise..

Hey Ian,
You got the gun I got the time lets turn this sucker into a real bush find,Dave loves the rustic look.

This is a great solid bus and he has scored big time with it the under side is as good as the body.

Just have to make it look it's age now.

I did have the shed very tidy for a change just before the bus and the bug got here.

Onward and forward we hope, Dave will be with us too Valla.

Angus is a bit put out having another bus on the hoist as thats where he normally lives

Cheers Ian
