Working away at fitting this centre belly pan
Making it removable if you ever need to access the clutch or handbrake tubes
Welded tabs down the chassis rails and used nut certs on the centre cross members

Nice work mate. Removable belly pan is great for smuggling too, the kids will all want to borrow the mango for getting booze into festivals

Ha ha, been there done that only we were in a lowlight and poped the door cards apart to smuggle grog into falls festival. Rocked up in 35c heat with the windows up, I guess the inspectors thought we had A/C in the bus
The memory’s champ should never have sold that bus
