It is amazing how much work and expense is involved!

Fig, Violets roof was somewhat more rotten than expected and was beyond my expertise and budget to repair . That and tha fact that my circumstances changed meant that it has been sold on I was able to recover the shipping cost.
Pressilla was a different bus altogether with minimal welding required and has progressed slowly but steadily.
Jolas The Rotisserie is very good one man can turn the bus! Very balanced and worth the few hours to build. please see the plans.

Drusky I might have some boiled lollies for you sweetie!
