    I like those cat. One-off's with a traditional look. I bet people will be asking you where you got them when you get out and about.
     
  3. I do hope so thats what is all about - i have kept the templates so I can make a few more -
     
  4. Little update - Sorry that i havent been about but the new job has swallowed all my spare time - Plus being mega mega skint dosnt help - But some progress the tailgate is now painted and fitted - the custom overriders are painted just need fitting - the drivers side cab door is all primed inside -
    My brother in law is ticking out the oak floor in the back and making a overhead locker

  17. the detail on this bus is astounding. I'm surprised though (and don't take this as me being negative) that with the level of detail you've gone to, particularly around the rear lights and tailgate, that you haven't hidden the hinges for the boot lid, early stylie. It does look superb though, can't wait to see it finished and hopefully see it in the flesh
    :)
     
  18. It was always my plan to keep it as stock as possible but just enhanced with little detail bits and bobs - thank you for the comments she is getting there slowly - still need so many parts - mind blowing
     
  19. A few snaps of the overriders fitted - not sure if it will come out of the workshop now ?????
