Pictures really do hold a 1000 words. I just get blown away when I look back at where it all started. I just delivered the bus back to its owner he is going to strip the interior and prep it for paint. I have a few more things to work out that I noticed after I primed it but its the name of the game. I still have to finish the rocker but I wanted to get the body back in primer.

Wow, that looks great! Now, paint it a nice stock color (or colors). Very Happy

I would love to do that. I think the seagul grey and white would kick. I also like the 62 red like a fire engine as a single color or the 67 era ruby red and white. It's not my choice on the color I know it will look great in any new color it goes. Its like painting a wall in your house you can allways go back and paint it again.
