Would look ridiculous... it would be working it's way towards being a harlequin bus.  :grin:

here's a good reason not to just yet, it would divert my much needed attention away from the golf.  :nerd:

As seen in the MK1 thread, the bus made it to Action too and was our home for the weekend... Loved it, could have stayed in it for a week, easily!

I don't think it will ever happen!  :grin:  In fact the missus is starting to take over as far the plans for it go, my original plan may be quashed for her own.  Luckily her suggestions have been pretty good so far.

This thing is still running.  Nothing adventurous has happened as it's been a mad few months at home/work but I have been driving it every weekend without fail to keep it happy and it's still running well.

Ordered some bits for the golf which I will be fitting when they arrive, then I will need to start blowing some holes in the van with a new welder as it certainly needs attention in this department.  Plan to go away, camp up and see some family in the new year before the MOT runs out then you can sit back and watch the updates of me destroying it!

Akai Racing T25 Team Bus Project - Round the clock... Again?

Had a nightmare with this last night... I'm planning on going away on my tod to go see some family so will be spending the next few nights in it.  It was over due an oil change, checked levels instead and ended up over filling it like a twit.  You should have seen the smoke...  :shocked: Ended up doing the change after all.   :grin:

Still quite smokey, smelt of fuel this time though, had to feck about with the carb and timing again. Gotta love the Pierburg 2e!  :sick:  Sorted now though and running very well again (for now)

The Empi exhausts I fitted not that long ago looked shocking (surface rust).  So prepped and painted the boxes in high temp paint, this burnt off!... Painted them with spray on hammerite, this stayed!

Added some ambient LED lighting to the inside... Looks like a mobile whore house now.  :grin:  Pic later.

This happened last night, I believe for the second time in it's life.
