A trip back in time

Old repair to offside rear wheel arch.(failed due to rusty inner)
Good offside battery tray and rear quarter!!!
Solid front valance!!
Good upper inner wheel tubs.

Good under side.

N/S battery tray out.
N/S inner sill is good, but for very end section.....will repair this instead of removing completely.

Again the outer side of this piece.

Good Memories

A bus gathering for my last birthday, good company and good memories.
Some quality blurred piccies also.

How cosy!!!

Also sounds good too!!

Removing Underseal.

Outer sill is pretty good but the rubber recess has gone through.
Inner center sill look quite solid and could probably stay...inner outer sill is shot.
Rear and front jacking points need replacing.

Finally starting to shift that underseal. Started to remove old inner wheel arch repair plate to find it has created problems.

Small rust hole between cab floor and wheel arch, thats about it, with near complete B post outer and healthy front arches. So far!!!!

Working late..........where are the other VumplestiltWagens now????
This is not much fun, and slow progress.
