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!
Wheels/paint are not my thing, but the build is very impressive! _________________ VW T1 1964 - Mouse Grey - Pearl White

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 They complement your matte black trim program.
A short vid with revving engine and some hard cornering would be nice. |

From SEMA.
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.

A video with sound would be really cool. It must be quite interesting to drive! Love your work. |

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