After owning a bay for 12 years this is the split I bought last summer. I've been looking on and off (more on than off )for years and convincing myself to stick with my bay for various reasons then the right time, right place, right price sort of thing happened.

A solid blank canvas, not registered, with an m.o.t, a bit ratty and the bulkhead was cut out but I could live with that. My plans were get it registered, creative irs and retain 1600 twin port that was in it. Oh yer and build an interior.

I have never built an interior before so I got some 12mm marine ply, bit and bobs, lots of guess work and here it is.

When I got it home.

Blank canvas

Starting interior

Rock and roll bed

Trimming the vinyl, insulating the roof

Running gear

Interior 1

Interior 2

Thanks again.

I insulated the roof with Thremawrap form screwfix.
Equivalent to 55mm of polystyrene and is £8.89 for 400mm x 5m. I insulated the roof, front panel, cab floor and over the engine bay inside the bus.
