Stories from the shed

Well the saga continues.................

Darren's continues with some nice touches thanks to a snap on joggler that Gary acquisitioned. Lower b pillar also repaired internally. also repair to inner wheel arch also follows original pattern including joggled steps.

Found this

I found this and shes cheap.......and i want her (£3000). It comes with the correct original front donor panel....What do ya think???

Just remember

Found this fantastic image while dredging the internet. Thought you would all like it!

Nose off

Just adjust this a bit here and SHIT!!

The ultimate bay window!! Panoramic vision

Devon camper makes it to Devon again!!!

Decent 15 acre campsite in the middle of Exmoor, camp fires recomended by the farmer....farms own meat etc for sale....mmmm











Fantastic drives up and down hills on very quiet roads.












In Cheddar Gourge.......amazing views.

Sunshine finally, a view of site up the hill.

and higher up!!

A panoramic sweep of the site (Westermill Farm)

Cruizing through the hills!! Many times in first gear on decent with squeeling brakes and poping exhausts!! scarey stuff for the uninitiated!!!!!

As requested

Dirty epic asked if we could print a picture of mounting rusty crap from Dazs Bus (more to come yet). Just wait until we post one for Garys!!!

OOps just noticed a repair section in that lot, will text Gary asap!!

Shed clear out!!

Gary and Neil started the day out with much rubbish removal, a big bonfire and a bay window

load of junk to the dump! Loads of furniture and stuff also hauled about to make more room for more bus destruction!!!!

Garys project continues and the work is mounting up!! Much of this is due to poor previous repair work and more filler than i have ever seen on a bus. But the center section is not only solid but immaculate...no rust whatsoever (thank god!) So far it looks like the usual lower 6 inch removal job! Maybe the subaru engine WILL have to wait!!!!

Magoo in a stew!!

Molly Magoo screams for HELP, but in the shed no one can hear her!!Mounting filler dust already!!

Looks like a tree fell onto her, tidied up an obviuos dent at the front of the roof but then found more damage....New front panel?????

This is the kinda patina Darren likes!! Possible meteor strike?

Garys already stripped the dash, front screen and a lot of the interior out in about four hours!!!!

I feel there may be more posts to follow

paint?

too matalic or not to metalic that is the question? whether it is nobler to be two tone blue, or go with the deep red and cream as those are the colours we are talking about, the two blues would be metalic or a deep metalic red and flat cream/off white?

i am halfway to an inspection hatch, i spent 2 1/2 hours cuttin at a t25 and i am still not all the way there, going back tomorrow though with a 5 inch grinder and a gas axe!

ps. on the sound dedening issues the t25 has a thick(8mm) hard bitumen layer over the engine bay that was then painted. seems to have some sort of anti rust in it though as where its cracked and peeling there's no rust its like a new pannel. any thoughts on what it may be?

More offerings

New battery tray and wheel arch lower section all ready for welding, just need that joggler now!! youmight also think at this time about a new lower rear quarter repair as everything else will be new other than the crash damaged and holey piece!! Jim has been working hard on removing the other bellypan for you, not an easy job!!! Again the inner sill looks pretty solid if not a little rusty, so hopefully they can also stay.

Onwards to the ruin... Wagons HO!
