You bet i cant wait to get this bus on the road!

Well i have been very busy lately so there hasnt been much progress, i finished the rear, thanks to Doug i got my license plate light lense ,the apron is giving me a hard time due to the A1 exhaust, And well painted the front SA sprints and mount them. Im hoping to do the rear wheels saturday. (been contemplating on weather to go lower or not, at the moment it has AMAZING suspension since the spring plates are in stock position)

My to do list for this week.
- assemble the front door frames
- paint the rear wheels
- finsih the apron
-put the driver side deluxe trim (been trying to straighten it )
- START THE INTERIOR
