hi all
i thought i would put some pictures of Toby up, the paint job is not great but not to bad, will do it proper paint job in a couple of years when i got some space, all in all it didnt cost me that much , well i have spent around a $800 thats with rego/ paint/door seal driver and other side/eye lids/ indicater lenzes cant spell , some wood and black plastic cover and some other things, runs well and kids love it, take it fishing and to the beach i love it lol  it does need some welding but have got a welder now so will have a go some time soon, it only needs it on the roof , but its quite abig hole but it does not leak any water so ok [img]

Great job and at minimum expense-photos show what can be done on D.I.Y. basis.

for what you have spent and the pics shown, your bus looks fantastic.  Smile Even if you dont have heaps of $s to spend on bus, a bit of paint makes it look nice.  Laughing

My paint job only cost about 11 rattle tins. Laughing

yes i did it my self,  but not sprayed , i wish it was a propper job , but i used a paint roller on it lol ,
it looks good from a distance and in the dark , looks ok close up , depends on what you want it for , i use it for fishing and beach and some camping soon , i will give it a couple of years before i bring it back to bare metal and spray it ,
