hi again mark, looks like one of the previous owners was lazy, yes you're supposed to remove all old rust and replace, check out some of the resto threads, The Reverend Diddymen will i'm sure be along soon to welcome you to the S.M.G and he and others will put you right on the panels, no point bodging it if you plan to keep it, it's off the road now so do it right and do it once.
"its a 2.0L air cooled auto but the engine is the centre of the van at the mo" Not too bad then. a mid engined bus. Way to go!
Welcome to the site mate, Looks you bought and onion bus (many skins ) It looks like a good project though, good luck with it
Welcome indeed. That was a poor quality skin. What you need are genuine arches, pricey but the cheap ones are fit for the bin. I hope you've started a resto thread.
Hi Markey Welcome and enjoy the journey! There are some great people on here that will give you good advice! Enjoy!
