    I never thought of it like that before. I guess we take it for granted that everything is pretty close

  14. Hi Dean, a cool looking bus. I will keep an eye for you on the mean streets of north London!

    I agree with the comments on the colour, it is sweet. I have just given my paint guy the colour for mine last week after several weeks deliberation and changing my mind. There are some great greens - velvet green, delta green, turquoise, but in the end I have chosen savannah beige and white.

  16. Mmmmm, Savanna magnolia. Such an elegant sophisticated color, like smokey vanilla. It whispers, "I needn't be flashy, I'm a Volkswagen. 8) "
    So close to my Mexican magnolia, yet for some reason all my color says is, "Stodgy English professor in a tweed jacket that smells like moth balls and pipe tobacco".
    I need another bus.

    Love the Monkey World photo, Dean. Classic road-trip shot. :)

    Peaches. I'm suddenly craving peaches.
     
  17. Very nice bus Dean, great colour! Looking at the pictures, it makes me more eager to finish my project and get out on the road! :D
    Still got a long way 2 go, but I know it takes time....

    Keep them pics coming!

    Cheers!

    So we are going to be painting the inside of George next week. He has been the wrong colour for far too long and needs to match the outside. I have all the gear ready to do it and looking forward to getting it done. Will post some pics when we start.
