Hoes that bus coming?

Hoping to get my bus project in over the winter.... We've been clearing out and trying to create some extra space.. I've been on it at home, over the weekends this summer and apart from the side cargo doors and roof, it's pretty much all prepped now... This is the bus I bought from Zach...it's going to the Stutt-Bee team/race support vehicle.... So, lots of gold metalflake, black and more metalflake, logo'd & signwriting like the Stutt-Bee. I'm quite excited about this one!   Watch this space..... |

Of course, you do realise that the bus needs to be chopped too, don't you Jick?! |

Thanks guys... hmmm Neil..... You might just have a point!  I've been enjoying these nice Sunday's we've had lately.... Just hung the cab doors up outside and primed them. Oh.. And standard ride height on this one too.... None of that slammed nonsense! |

Great work, what's better is that when you move on a SPECIAL car you hope the new owner sees the historic and importance of the car.
You do 110%
Thank you
Can't wait to see the kid dean square at VW2016
And s little race against you in stutter would be fun ?
Cheers and well done, your shops work looks fantastic

Thanks for the kind words Russell! We're all really enjoying getting the Kid-Dean car looking it's best once more.... Hopefully the whole car will be in 1st prime by the end of next week....    And the wheels..  |

Excellent wheel choice. I was never convinced by the Marathon wheels with caps!

Thanks Richard!
Yes.....with only one or two exceptions, everyone I have discussed it with agrees that those Marathons were awful..... I think these Empi's will suit it's Build style and era much better...

Dougie from Aberdeen wanted a gold flake roof for his Manx project that Robs hooking him up with... He was after something with an "Inch Pincher" vibe in varying shades of gold. We used House of Kolors Metajuls coarse metallic basecoat with Kandy Spanish/Pagan and Lime Gold panels....   Really enjoyed this one! |

Thanks guys! You're right Lee...I'm very lucky to have a great team. Tony painted Wayne's Rambler & the Kid-Dean car Terry painted the Bay and does all the everyday paint stuff. I painted Dougie's roof, and Richards fantastic bodywork skills make it easy for us.... And yes, See you at Volksworld!  |
