72% actually.

The point is, they are mine and they are safe and looked after. So where's the waste?

But I did have time to complete the bus interior, I did start the Notch and ordered new tyres for her, and I drove Rumours, replaced the number plate light, and "looked at" :oops: the repair needed on the exhaust. I also reconditioned all three the batteries, for the Notch, the Ghia and Gill's bus. And I cleaned and stored the Hazet tool set and the other additions to the Notch in preparation for the Bug Jam.

Have you started preparing for Bug Jam yet? :mrgreen:

Probably...

What's left to do? Chuck a seat in, and a steering wheel. Add a seatbelt for luxury, and Bob's yer uncle, Fanny's yer aunt, and the job's a good'un, innit? :lol: :mrgreen:

Where's the bulkhead? :|

Really? Some Splitties were "walkthrough". I can't see well enough, but the detail on the sides of the seat mounting platform jobbies look a bit VW. Maybe she was a walkthrough?

I do believe even the walkthrough had the two back-rest type bulkheads behind each seat.

I've heard "No! Don't do it! It's terrible! The bus will disintegrate." and "Oh foggit, go ahead, cut, nought will happen..."

Anyway, good luck with it, I reckon you've got your hands full.

Well done Sir,

Progress is great,
may make it for the Bug Jam,
but a definite for George and KKK

Are you missing parts, or have you got them all.
May have some if you need ?
