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 Very Happy

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? Wink


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


Smile)))))))))) That's funny! I think the front windows look great Wink

Congrats on the awesome bus and amazing resto! Love it! Wanna trade for a bus with the extra windows on the roof? Wink

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.
