    So the bus is going on the road for the first time in a lot of years. I'm transferring it 2 miles from mum and dads to my house. No doors windows brakes or load floor and I'm towing it there lol
    Hopefully be able to video the experience and post it up :)

    So the epic journey happened!
    Towed by a cheapo screwfix bar with a trailer light bar zip tied into the load area. No doors or windows or brakes lol
    The route I was planning was fairly discreet but there were roadworks and the road was closed so I had to go right through the centre of wells, wish I had someone filming as the looks I got were epic!

    It rode really smooth bearing in mind it had shocks on only one side. Apparently the rear ns wheel shakes like a mofo so that's something I need to look at!
    Here he is all tucked up on his new home for the foreseeable ;)

    It would have been funny (for us) if the wheel had fallen off. :)

    My first ever drive in him ha. Had a grin like a Cheshire cat all the way. Think that might have changed if we came across a rozzer lol
