Very nice composures with the photos Razz


Thought you would like those Rob Wink

The bus then went into the rotisserie for the final welding and grinding and also to have the belly pans fitted.

Belly pans are a total no-brainer in my book, keep the crap out and the heat in, if it has to have them or not.

I'm sure that making it look so easy is A LOT of work.

Outstanding workmanship! Always looking forward to the next update.

loving the removable belly pan section with the quench nuts installation! great idea to add rigidity to such an old shell.

Hi Everett,

thanks

It’s been coated in a 2 stage polyurethane resin based stone chip the same as the rest of the underside.
The product is tintable so you just add the desired colour.
Cheers
Jeff.

Yes I think they make sense and can easily be removed if you want it back to stock at a later date.
I’ll be putting them on my next bus if I ever find another I like.

I hope your not going to cut a hole in the roof...I am thinking maybe that is why you put the belly pans on there

Yes I have a sunroof cut waiting to go in, but don’t worry I won’t be adding any more windows Wink

Great progress... and love the rotisserie very much ! Cool

Would have been very cool to also save the green box on top of the bus and make it a trailer again that you can tow with the BD....
They kinda belong together after all this time !

Maybe not too late ? Wink
