    Worked on trimming and drilling on the driver side cargo floor this morning. Drilling all those holes can wear your arm out FAST!

    Was grinding welds down on the bed all day. Tedious work, but it’s work!

    Today I got the passenger side floor close to being ready to be welded in. Had to get it all marked this morning before drilling a TON of holes. 0CD6943D-F7EB-497F-99DC-D25DE971B113ED99C644-3DDE-49B7-83B1-E9971C2D8177FF2987F7-F2F1-4A4F-A4A6-8C0BE43259E2
    Got it set in the bus. Needs a few more holes drilled in it before it’s ready to be welded in.

    Been working on the battery tray area on the passenger side today. F84860B9-DC77-4709-922D-FA6C549A3618
    Got the mud flap cut out first then began working on the battery tray.

    Finished cutting out the tray a bit before lunch.

    Got that rear center section SUPER close to coming out. Yesterday afternoon I got about 2/3 of it cut out. Today I dissected a few strips that were stuck to the top hat then started to cut that final third of the rear center section out. Gonna get that area all cleaned up soon!

    Half way through my day. So far, I’ve cut out a rusty spot around the bulkhead and top hat on the passenger side of the bus. 55B46126-6F18-4832-8F82-331927C4D48A
    Next up is to cut out the rear center section.

    Spent most of my day working on dissecting bits off in the cab. Took off a strip that ran along the inside.

    0279BADF-B4C0-4BB7-AF40-77AC4F1C90EA
    Then dealt with two large strips that were sitting on the middle beam and the left beam.

    After that I moved onto the passenger side of the bus and started dissecting spots along there.

    Spent another day dissecting. Started my morning by cutting a rusty spot out towards the back.

    Then followed that up by cutting out a strip of floor that was right next to it.

    F0F401DA-037D-48C2-9787-39F8BA403222
    After that I dissected a strip of metal that was below the firewall behind where the seats would be.

    Spent another day dissecting. I finished up the floor.

    9DD83173-A1CF-4927-A6CD-F09EF1E1B90F
    Then started dissecting other spots on the passenger side of the bus. Got most of the way done dissecting that side overall!

    Finished dissecting that panel today. Packed everything up in the bus since it’s being put on hold.

    Did some more dissecting today. Went a LOT easier at the beginning of the day due to the thinner metal. 9B5FF62A-F6C2-4216-A80E-E7DB2346E22FA272F5AA-8F7E-4CA8-8F5B-8E9D8C1BEA75Ended up cutting that cone shaped piece off since it wasn’t needed. Then I started working up the side of the panel, which took a bit longer since the metal was thicker.D433BA68-5891-4C73-8BD8-34E633841EA2Metal showed up today as well! 😁CB14FC78-E3B3-47E2-AAB4-0328D6EFD8CD

    Yeah I can’t wait to get my drivers license! Then I’ll feel like the work I put in really paid off. I’ve really had fun building this and learning how to bodywork!
