I'm assuming that's the paint booth in the background? 've often said some of the best paint jobs I've ever seen were from a dirt floor. Flood it with a hose first and you have no dust problems...

Bus looks great

Have you considered simply starting with a nicer bus? I don't know what your skills are, but the race is easier if you can see the finish line. If you are not a runner, don't start off doing a marathon.

Nice work. Restoring and installing pop outs can be a real pain. Should be cake now for the headliner to just undo the latches and upholster the window surrounds.
