"It's coming together from apart" congrats! Great job! Each little job gets you a little bit closer to driving it.
Cheers buddy It was so nice to get it back on its wheels again, feels like a big step forward! Even nicer to see it so close to ground
Can't comment on the lowering thing without sounding neg, soz , appreciate the look can't stand the ride. good work all the same- I so know how it feels to make progress.
No worries ma man, can't all like the same things can we. Should have seen the amount of stick I got for putting early panels on a late bug year before last haha!! There's nothing better than a good bit of progress is there! You spend days, weeks hard at it and feel like your getting no where and then in one evening you bolt on a few bits and it feels like you have achieved shed loads
Treated the old girl to some new wheels recently. They are a little bit wider than I wanted tho unfortunately! Mercededs lorinser bbs 5x112! Some Tyres were fitted when new and they sat in a lorinser show room back in the early 80s, then they were put into storage somewhere in Austria until recently when they found there way to me! Other than a few storage marks they are still new. Original metal center caps too 1 Still has a sticker on it from when they were in the show room
This is what the underneath is looking like now.....finally not a nice job when the bus is only 15 inches off the ground! I have spent days under there! So glad it's done now haha. I have used a rust converter under the whole bus before painting and I'm going to use epoxy 121 and then probably schutz when it's all finished! Here's a pic anyway
