Thank all, its pops even more in real life. Yep we have decided to go with a fine gold pinstripe just to add that something. We mocked up silver and gold, but the silver got a bit lost, so we tried a couple of golds and came up with this one. That pic is just roughly hand-sprayed over the clear to get an idea of colour, so it will now get done properly and then cleared over so it's smooth. The idea in my head all along is a bit of a modern take on the classic dual colour scheme, the VW deluxe trim would look too heavy on it for my tastes. It's actually a custom candy colour, it's not on any regular car. Usually for hot rods etc.

Wow checked out the link. Very clean. When is it coming home to be put back together ?
Nice one btw - well done

Yea I couldn't see another way to post a video? Million dollar question is when it's coming home. Still interior and engine bay to go. Maybe a week.or so.

Nice to finally be able to reply by phone

Body looks great
Definitely won’t loose it

Wait until the bling goes on, kinda the extreme opposite end to the Patina style

Finally back home. The paints not blocked or anything, but I want to get it assembled enough to go to the trimmers in the new year. But it is coming together nicely. Just finishing off the sound deadening, and it's finally down on its own 4 wheels and steering for the first time since I skull dragged it out of its resting pace. Getting plenty of advice from Cooper on putting all the little bibs and bobs back on.

Not mucking around, looks like it is coming together

Wow, that looks factory fresh !! Be nice to have the 'dirty' work done i'd imagine. What a first bus you have done. What's those buttons on the overhead panel for ? Just couldn't zoom in enough to see ?

Liking your pinstripe too.

Cheers Linz

nice one man, smick,

Just keeps getting better and better, great work!

Cheers boys, we are super happy with how it's turning out. The pinstripe was the painter's idea.

That looks tuff - like the pinstripe too...

Been busy doing the jobs that need to be done before it goes to the trimmers in about a week. Not the most glamorous part of a build but getting through it. I wanted to get the loom in and done, to minimise the chance of having to pull off the trim after. One job was also doing the overhead console properly. Couldn't find a box the exact size so modelled and printed one up on the 3D printer. I used to be an electronics tradesman in a previous life so put those skills to work. Busy little bastard of a thing for something relatively simple. Ran one loom down the passenger A-pillar to the stuff at the front of the bus and ran the other inside where the channel is then down and into the battery area. Not many jobs left now before it's off for trimming. Then back to the painters for the final stuff, then its assembly for good.
