steve was not happy with the front with trim on as it was not perfect
jeez put the bumper , emblem on & it would not be noticed but steve is
putting his name to the bus so back into the spray booth till its perfect.
ignore the colour orange its the bakeroom & flash camera illusion

Thanks Wal. Pics are great mate. I am heading down to Steves this Sat to drop off the number plates and fuchs. The wheels look awesome and should suit the bus well. The guru of interiors, Mr Brad Wells is coming to Coffs on the 28th to do the interior. New motor and exhaust is finished and ready to go. Yes, Brizzy will have another bus real soon and hoping to catch up with other Brizzy-ites soon.

Re. PCD on brakes - I dare say 5x130 if it is porsche pattern Fuchs you are using?

Good stuff!

WOW! What are the plans for the interior? Wheels?

The guru of interiors has been hard at it. Heres a glimpse of his work. Red piping, light grey top and dark grey base. Should work well with the bus colours Also, quick pic of the wheels for the bus.

Nice seats, mate.
A coupla questions.....
What brand/size/series tyres are you using on those Fuchs?
I'm about to have to think about tyres for my 67.
And is that glue or rust or dirt around the roof?

Could there possibly be a nicer 11 window getting about?

I think not.

glue, rust or dirt around the roof all wrong its rustproofing & lots of it.
if you see any brown colour on the split its rustproofing wax.
