  1. img20140802_145840.jpg Hi all, as some of you know I'm in the process of restoring my 73 bay tintop, when I bought the bus she had already undergone a huge amount of work which included as follows
    Whole new cargo floor
    New front panel
    New front door skins
    New lower repair panels all round.
    New tailgate.
    4x new wheel arches.
    New steps.
    New jacking points.
    New out riggers.
    New top hats.
    Also had engine rebuild.

    So all in all she's a very very solid no rust bus,
    The only thing was the bloke I bought it off had sprayed her in a military type satin green, which looked ok, but I want the bus nice and shiny in either original samantra green/ white or possibly pampus green/ white, not decided as yet, anyway, she's coming on a treat now, I managed to rent a barn local to me, so work begun on getting her prepared for respray, the body has no rust due to having all new panels etc, so it's basically going round her panel by panel just rectifying any little dinks etc, here's how she is right now.

  3. Ooh nice, more pics :).
    What type of indicators are you having?
     
  4. Just going with the standard indicators mate.
     
  5. Right then people, as you know I've been in the process of preparing the bus for paint, unfortunately something has come up and need to raise some funds, so with great regret she may have to go! Anyone interested in her? Will be looking for around £5250 for her
