Yeesh! Genuinely thought that rad was serviceable until you breathed on it and it collapsed into a heap! 😮
Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
Blimeyyyyy! You're doing an amazing job.
Don't be despondent Conrad, its only box section, but just a word of advice, don't go looking for it till you have sorted the first problem out, its easy to get over faced with too many issues and lose interest, been there myself as I,m sure any bus preservationist worth their salt would have been too, I rebuilt WYPTE 5505 back end and it was daunting at first, all the box section and main cross member were rotten, i got there in the end and saved another from the doubting Mini's that said it was scrap! I've since made outriggers, body frame sections etc, etc, I'd love to help but i've got 4 of my own on the go and not enough hours in the day! Find yourself a really good fabricator with quality welding skills and equipment and they'll sort it no bother! All the best, Cracking channel!
I own a 1987 mk1 Renault Trafic eribacar which looks terrible but is quite solid after a lot of rot was cut out of it, I'm shocked at how bad this bus has rotted, mind you I think your bus is new, in reality its coming up to quarter of a century old. Hope you can sort it out. 😊 Graham, parked up for the weekend at Middlezoy airfield in the pouring rain and loving it. ❤
Hi guys hopefully she will be repairable, judging by the downstairs windows it may be Worth removeing all the internal trim upstairs, especially where the fish tank is(unless i missed that bit?)also may be worth thinking maybe contacting a glass company to maybe "sponser" a video and have them replace the glass with duble glazed units especially considering this will br your home. Maybe you could use the area where the aircon was at the back behind the grills as somehere to stick a couple of diesel heaters???
The Darkness must have spilt a lot of drinks for it to be that rusty.
Ahaha fair to many!!! Thanks for watching
That frown at your dancing says it all. Never give up mate.
Ahah you definitely don’t want to hear the singing lol. Thanks for watching
Superleggero! Having restored a few crusty old cars, anything can be fixed, but hopefully it won't get any worse.
Morning, Rust - the best weight reduction ever, another brilliant video, looks like a big problem, lets hope its fixable
Number 64 in the background is one nice looking bus!
Yes, one of my old school buses. Hull Corporation 1965ish
(Sorry for any chewing gum. ;))
It’s beautiful and a credit to its owner!
❤️❤️❤️ it’s had a full restro. But you never know !
Good luck hope its ok
Thank you ❤️❤️
As long as you can find some solid metal at each end to weld to, it'll be repairable. Whether the cost is more than you want to pay / can afford to pay is the real question ... given your plans will add value to the bus and the time you've taken to get this far, you can probably justify spending more than if you were fixing it up to sell
Hope it isn't too painful to fix!
Blimey! What a reveal. Hopefully it can be fixed.
Some work for sure but you’ll get there.
PS:Loving the old Hull Bus in the background :)
Oh No. Not a scrapper!!! Will wait with bated breath to hear the verdict...hopefully it will be salvageable!!!
Keep going… brill video
Just passed you guys near Ovenden!!
Just realised that Owen’s ex Kenzies Plaxton is parked behind you in the garage.
Don’t worry about it that was a task and a half hope to is worth doing as we r enjoying it see you all soon fingers crossed ❤
thank you for sharing 😊😊
Thank you for watching n
Hope for your sake it not terminal , be a big blow to you if it is. Be good to see you start installing instead of ripping out. Hope it’s good news 🙏
Blimey, thats a task and a half. Fingers crossed its easy to fix. Be a shame to have to scrap it after all that work.
Do you only get a day a week to work on the new bus?
Morning :)
Morning !!! Thanks for watching
Morning gang, it’s one problem after another, hope all can be sorted after all the effort you have put in.
its just chunks of box section you can cut it out and replace it
YEEEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAA
fixable? im scared something nasty will be found. Keep going :)
Was the air con system certified degassed before you took the angle grinder to it because if it wasn't and you are not f gas certified engineer the environment police may be paying you a visit after watching your video ,condensers are notorious for rust by the way and if that ac compressor is good its worth a fair bit of cash .
Yeah it was already cut when we got the bus and we had it checked by a coach mechanic who confirmed it was empty too !
The compressor is good and awaiting a new home! Thanks for watching
@@six_inabus nice one a former colleague of mine got £11000 fine for working on a system uncertified (not a bus but an ac system) that list of jobs is getting pretty long now ,hope you get it done tho so you can sell me your fleetline .
Another title you could have used for this video… my rear end is rusty
Ahahah that would have worked. Maybe next weeks video 😂😂😂
Hope it goes ok, but god I bet your wishing you’d never bought that
Sorry but God this was painful to watch.
