[Madhatter]

Damn this bad weather we are having here , as soon as it clears up i am probably rebuilding the brakes as soon as i can but i an probably going to get a manual before all that since i am not to familiar with brakes haha

[P78]

steady progress i like

[Madhatter]

thanks man! should be some more soon as i get my bentley i bought online in my possesion, next thing is rebuilding all the brakes because they are screwed up! lol and as soon as i get a welder, the body will be straight and the bus will be low, really low lol

[Madhatter]

Did some more bodywork
there was some pits or watever in the paint

i fixed that

lots of sanding

i noticed i have two different kind of lights??



pits on the side of the bus

bondo on it, not sanded yet, tomorrows job i guess



while bondo was drying i took pics or interior i need to fix












tomorrow: sand down bondo and stuff, maybe work on taking engine tin off

[P78]

what u gonna do for interior?

[Madhatter]

ive been thinking alot on that actually prolly original seats, (except the middle one will be in the back and the back one will be out) two tvs a bunch of game systems to play, a decent system wood floor, a minifridge and possibly a/c? ohh and also just another stock headliner, i was going to make the backseat fold down in to a bed but i dont think i will

[Madhatter]

or possibly a wrap around seat?

[D&W]

[Madhatter]
