SO42 Project

The so42 project is coming on nicely and we've now got almost all of the lower-half rot cut out and the panels cleaned back.

We've removed the front inner and outer valence and cleaned back to the chassis. Just routine repairs with new panels needed here.
The front floors were pretty poor and have ben cut out.
we knew the bus had a front clip from another bus at some point and now we can see the joins!
....not the best of jobs really. These areas will be sorted out with new chassis grade steel before new front floor panels are welded in
The load area has also been cleaned up - all good news here - it's in great condition. A new floor and sills under the loading doors will see this area done.
