A Barn Find.........

Glass in .... to louvre or not to louvre

Couldn't decide on the louvre or the flat glass....mixed feedback 'too fussy', 'jail van, 'retro'....I didn't think it was as clean as the flat glass as I'm after simplicity in this bus, having said that if it's a scorcher this summer and I'm sat swelteri g in a traffic jam I may yet rue the day?

Spaghetti.....its all fucking spaghetti to me

VW Split Screen Lower Nose Clip Repair.

 Started early and welded in outer valance. Primed up interior first.

 Neil's project looking very smooth.

 New bits'n'bobs.

 All welded in.

 Ground back with grinding disc.

 Then cleaned up with flap disc and finaly air sander.

 All washed down with panel wipe and keyed up with abrasive paper and primer painted.

 Lower upper clip edge trimmed and punched.

 Outer lower clip repair joggled, cut, adjusted, washed, keyed and primer painted.

So pleased with this first fitment!!! only needed a slight  trim on one edge to fit snug.

Started welding in then ran out of argon co2 mix!! Cleaned up welds.

New Bus Wheels?

 Also picked up a scrap table!!

So standard Mercedes 15 inch 5.5 J steels. All we need are a set of early bay spring clips and weve got decent looking steels??

Extra ventilation for disc brakes. What about chroming them??
