Still looks like that, though a push rod tube looks a lil squashed on #4. I have a lil leak and suspect that is it. That was the only thing that looked like your bus when I bought it (engine compartment)

That is some awesome progress man! Very well done. I know what you mean about how much louder the Early is compares to the late. Kinda crazy how much extra noise they make. Old Blue is looking pretty sweet! B

Don, what's your history with "Old Blue?" I don't think I'm familiar with the whole story...Hold on...maybe there is a thread on that bus in here...so many threads, so little time.

Yes of course, THAT bus! I tend to get my wires crossed reading about the many buses of MIACVW. I admire the work you did on it, must be nice to see it "home" again.

Still struggling with water leaking doors and windows. Still plugging along getting the interior parts ready. The rain kept me inside today, so I cut some ceiling panels and decided to paint them, instead of stain and lacquer. Hardly wait to piece it all together .....

Yo Brent,
What kind of floor are you installing in Old-Blue? I'm trying to sort out what I'm going to do in mine. Looking for ideas.
Thanks! B

I like what I did in my green one, but going with laminate in this one, for now. Honestly, find yourself some good vinyl or sun deck material ...
