That does not look like a bad project at all. I am just curious, is that ladder functional, is it possible to put one's full body weight on it without the chance of some sort of cosmetic damage?

The ladder is actually upside down in this picture, Flip it around and the straight piece lays inside the rain gutter and the bars tha look like a "J" slide underneath the rear wheel wheel and rest on the tire itself.

It works awsome...It holds me with no problem @ 250lbs.

Oh, ok. I just looked at the picture real quick and noticed it was akward, but did not realize it was upside down. What are your future plans with the Bus?

Dunno, It's been a never ending project. My 1776 will be installed before the BBB show. Maybe a full length rack and possibly some Hurst bumpers????

Hurst Bumpers for sure Nick! Rattle can those bitches with fridge paint! You know what would set that thing off? A GOOD BUFF to bring out that PATINA.. It looks chalky and weathered.. i.e. Skim's El Standito when he found it in the weeds.. A good buff would bring it to life!

Upon further inspection, I need to drop the front end a tad more, and the back is going to have to raise a notch to i can fit my new motor with its jumbo muffler
