darrenjlobb's Adaptronic Managed Compound Blown Derv Bus Build
#48
Bit of an update again,

Some more arch work was required to fit some slightly wider wheels in this time around, So obviously wanted to do this now, before it was in paint to avoid screwing over the paint in the future, so cracked out the roller and slowly worked the archs bit at a time:

Next thing was to get the car down closer to the floor so I could reach up and do the entire roof, so dropped it onto some wood blocks:

Then started to get the workshop ready by dividing the lower half in two to reduce the ammount of space to keep warm, try and reduce dust etc. Also at this point re located two temporary bodge radiators for the redneck heating system (running on used motor oil) down by the car to keep it warm overnight etc.

I have also bought a new spray mask, positive pressure air fed one, but given our compressor is in the room next door, decided to duct the inlets outside, to make sure it dosnt just sucks in the paint fumed and feed my face with the same air thats in the room anyway!

And I think at this point, it just needs the room damping down, the car wiping down, and then the first coat of primer!

A video to get to this point:
