Howdy,

Did some work on the interior today! Bought some material that is very, very, very close to the stuff the original door panels, etc were made of.

I fab'd the cab head pieces, rear hatch piece, and the panels for the cargo doors. I also put insultion in all those places.

Some people poo-pooed my idea of glueing foam to the inside of the bus for insulation, but my experience shows that its OK. My last bus had had it, for Bob knows how long, and this bus had foam glued all over for over 20 years, and not a speck of rust onder any of it (although it was _fun_ - NOT _ to scrape the old foam out)
