thanks!I used a customer barndoor to copy metal parts and did a lot of research, such as mounting a front and rear windshield, which is now samba barndoor sized.

Is it just me or are your engine vents small? They look too short height wise and maybe length? Bus looking good though.

Well seen, I chose the "ease", but outside, it's embarrassing now. I will change it, it would be a pity after so much effort.
I want to get out my fake barndoor next summer

Not trying to embarrass you. But better to fix that before it's too late. With the new metal providers that's an easy fix and fairly cheap to do now. The bus looks great!

No problem, it was one of the last changes I had to make. it's bothering me in my bus now.
So, at work !!!
I like this bus!
