Would be great to have you guys put in the hard brake lines, I hate those.

Priority needs to be finishing the headliner, cots, the silent gliss cutain rails in roof and cab and finishing out the cab (seats, pedestal mats, seatbelts, etc) though. Don’t worry about cab interior cards (door/nose) and stereo, I’ll handle those later. I have a floor mat here if there’s not one already in the bus parts.

Franz has a priority list from me in an email from a while back.

Just got a call from Painter’s Grinding. Eddie has the transaxle rebuilt already.

Sounds like we’ll need to find a bus nose cone to put on it.

Looks tough!! The 7” rear wheels are close to the spring plates/adjusters. May need a 1/4” wheel spacer.

I found a bus nose cone and hockey stick. 67 style. It will need a new hockey stick seal.

Going to send that tomorrow.

I’m also going to send you the type -e carrier housings and 944 stub axles for my double cab project. Can I talk you into ordering bearings and assembling those for me? After seeing the clearance work needed on the set for the dormy, you’re better qualified than I am.
