Thanks for your comments guys.
I spent my sunny saturday restoring the original brake light. Considering I am an amateur, I liked the final result

Thanks Dion!

I would seriously consider correcting the front window openings before you build it up. It'll be much less painful to get it fixed now (assuming you want to) |
maybe he is really tall and wants to look out the windshield? |
If that's the case maybe he could just ask 10 foot Doug on some pointers on how to drive a barndoor with slightly smaller windows |
)))))))))) That's funny! I think the front windows look great
Congrats on the awesome bus and amazing resto! Love it! Wanna trade for a bus with the extra windows on the roof?
Keep up the great work! |

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. |
