I think eye wood like to see some early pictures, like putting the side on and the roof
Going by the first time you picked it up, there would have been a bunch of welding work done before you got around to putting the roof on

Hey Vanell i bought the bus off a guy called Jerry who had a little workshop in Byron.
He was getting deported for overstaying his visa from the US so he had started tacking a roof on etc.
Probably in hindsight i should of never bought it as it was a basket case.

Finally got the motor fitted and had some some cabinets made for storage.
Had some old pine tables that I repurposed and the cabinet maker did a great job.
Now to find an exhaust and fit up some fuel hoses and wiring.
