Cheers guys, feels great to get behind the wheel finally!! Still got loads to do, and the clock is ticking!! :?

Managed to slice a handbrake cable last night, so I'm already using up the spares I've put aside for the journey!! :lol: The loom is now completed, but not installed, and Ive just realised that I have no useable headlight reflectors or bulb holders, might be a bacofoil moment coming up soon I reckon!! I found all my zip ties though, so its not all bad 8)

Thanks Mark, and Thanks Mark :wink:

Looming it up tonight, not the easiest of jobs but one that needs to be done!! Looking forward to having lights and stuff working at last!! Still a big list on the go, but things are getting ticked off the list slowly! Realised last night at 11pm that the door catches dont work because they must be from a later bus with recessed ice picks... another thing to sort!! :lol:

Hey dude, awesome bus, superb work! :D

I was in the group of 3 buses (58 pg/sg, Devon Bay and 15w deluxe) of the ferry on Monday!

I took a few pics and a vid we got of it over the weekend :)
