The Restoration of Stanley a 72 Cross Over.

This is going to be one tidy bus when its finished
Are you painting the stonechip in the body colour?

 

Yes its all going to be body colour with black under pans with stainless steel fittings, hopefully should look nice hopefully! its been alot of work but worth it now its coming together.

 

I thought an update was in order, this is where we got up to before i took a little break















still got the bumpers and pop top to do but getting there! does anyone know a source for the factory applied stickers such as fuel ratiing sticker etc as applied at factory.

 

Wow, that's stunning M8. 8)

 

Thats my sort of resto
Id love to build a bus to that standard

 

Cheers Guys, thankyou for your comments much appreciated, its been alot of hard work and i'm not sure i would want to do it again but i'm pleased wiith the way its turing out still along way to go! trouble is everything that go's back on has to be as clean or polished.

Thanks Guys for your positive comments much appreciated and keeps me going, can anyone post a pic of the Brake fluid resevoir, ours was located behind the drivers seat and was held by a single self tapper , i'm sure it should have a metal strap around it as well?

 

It should have 2 self tappers - at opposite corners.

 

It would seem the one on ours has been replaced? theres just a single screw holding it? its a 72 crossover with servo fitted.



wheels have been cleaned and painted as has dash and steering box ,i'm itching to put it all back together but still need to flat and polish it!









i need a nut to fit pitman arm to steering box, who might stock them? or anyone got a spare one?

cheers

 

Sorry - different type of reservoir. As you were...

 

Ive not seen that res on a bus before mines below the drivers seat

 

Why on a bus of this standard have you stonechipped and painted over sticking out bits of mig wire?

Im not having a go dude just constuctive critisism
