Body colour the whole bottom? This thing will be shinier below the sills than it is above them!

Looks killer mate.

I’ll be using the paint Martin got mixed up for me on the outside repair sections

Wow Brad, it is really taking shape now - congrats on the progress.

I reckon you shouldn't have any trouble with those belly pans with all those fixing points!

The sheds big enough for 3 busses isn’t it?

Being working away on these outside belly pans for a couple of hrs each night and also made the front jacking points as well tonight
Primed and ready for some mango paint, prob should of left the outside in primer instead of painting it mango the other day but I just get too excited when I get a spray gun in my hand and can’t stop myself
