womballs 74 project DAISY

This is coming along really well. Those fabricated panels look better than the ones you can buy!!

 

I know the feelig of finding lots of rotten steel when you cut bits out, my heart sinks lol you must have some sort of lion heart, good work man you really are doing a great job!

 

great work

its like your using the old bus as a template to build a new one theres so much rust

keep up the good work mate

 

Thanks diddy, you could be right most of the bus will be new, but still cheaper than buying one half don, then having to tear it apart and do it right.
plus i like to do my own thing . Yours is looking great, been watching it coming along.

 

Well i must say that you are the metal work king - outstanding work, the repair sections look as good as the factory ones.
I must say i do like the making and welding of steel the best bit - just spent 2 months of sanding filler and thats @@@@!
will be keeping an eye out for more of your steel fab work.

 

your not wrong.....you can end up buying a nice shiny bus and find out it is made of filler!

no bus should be sent to the scrap yard IMO well done for saving it

 

Thanks

Thanks Marc I don't no about metal king , but I do like that side of restoration, but body work and painting is good fun as well because people can see that,but people dont see the metal as it gets covered .
Thanks for watching much appreciated

 

Thanks diddymen, I agree I don't think any should go to the big scrap yard in the sky he he.

 

Tidy work all the way through dude

When i first saw the bus i thought you were nuts but now ill be checking in on each future update

Oh and your still nuts lol

 

Thanks para not nuts just cant let some one breaker her,plus the more difficult the better .

 

Great to see another rusty bus being nailed by a true enthusiast. Brilliant metalworking skills, good to see some metal tech in here , keep it coming fantastic posts...

 

Glutten for punishment a man after my own heart

Do it once do it properly seems to be your motto

 

Yo Am 1 Brave Dude!!! Well Done Fella

Did you find that in Stourbridge West Midds by any Chance?? just looks Familer Good Luck Dude

 

Hi, no it came from London way. Thanks for watching

 

While im waiting for some more metal sheet to come , i thought that i might make a start on the front corner and chassie rail ,outriggers.
so here some pics. not to bad .
Iv started the rear corner, but i will wait till i have finished to show you all that.

 

My little project having to make a new one as all you can buy is the inside part,
so thought i will try to make a new one .something to do when i get home from work
If some one has some good pics of this part that would be great as this bits so rotten 74 RHD
