After being imported into the uk in 2002 the poor old truck looked like it had a very hard ten years but in all honesty the engine was a good lump and not an awful lot of rust but not one straight panel, so as always not many word but plenty of photo's.
Well there it is, just the tail gate to do and a few bits of trim, flew through its MOT on the 23rd of May, many thanks to Millner 4X4 for supplying the parts, Ian Copley @ Mitsybitz for the front wings, Wayside adhesives for stone chip and Nu again Paints for the Gun metal grey paint (still think it looks more brown but looks grey close up, honest) and last but not least to my father for letting me swipe the front seats out of his old Escort.
Over the years Iv'e had the pleasure and pain of working on various projects of all shapes and sizes from classic cars to stock cars to fishing boats, over the years images have been lost but not the memories, so rather than keep future memories locked in the vast vault in my head they are going on here, hope you enjoy

Its been a while since the last update so here is a touch of over kill, the bus has now gone back to Ian in primer due to a change of plans so I wish him all the best and hope its not too long before you all see the splitty on the road.
Many thanks to Chris Woods for transporting it back to its place of rest and hope you all enjoy the photo,s. Should be another update reasonably soon and as always any comments, good or bad, are appreciated and sorry you all didn't get to see the bus with its new colours.
