Its been a while since I last posted. Lots of background stuff going on and the SC went of and had some professional paint work done. I had originally painted the SC in my garage and for 99.9% of the venues the truck will go to would have been fine. SEMA demands just that little more.

Unfortunitly the cut and buff left a residue on the dash covering i did so I had to completly strip it and reapply. I also did several other areas with the same process. Once i can get in there and take some new photos I will. It turned out WAY better the second go round..

Wauw very nice build! This is the first bus I like with a Suabru engine! Cool

Wheels/paint are not my thing, but the build is very impressive!

I’m really liking this build.
As stated before me, wheels were not what I expected. Think you might be going wider in the future.
Otherwise, after nine pages, very impressive.
You saved this bus in my opinion.

I'm good with your wheel choice Very Happy They complement your matte black trim program.

A short vid with revving engine and some hard cornering would be nice. Twisted Evil

I didn't get to do the Cruse. It was SO crazy that night. waited in line for 3 hours. finally gave up and escaped out the other direction and loaded up on trailer. I did stop on my way home in Scottsdale at the weekly McDonalds show for a few hours.

That is an absolute work of art. Cant imagine how many hours and dollars went into it. More importantly, how does it run/drive?
