Evening all, im the chap who's been working on richs camper told kev i would have a look around your site and must say seems a friendly place, anyway i can admit there has been ALOT of hard work on my part to get the bus looking like it is now, hope to work on it again tomorrow, sorting out the little patches that we weren't happy with and applying another 2 coats of putty primer, then fingers crossed can be took into the bay, so will keep you all informed tomorrow night.
