It looks like i'm gonna try and restore the bus but the decision i have to make is: Do i leave her ad a minibus or fill in the last 2 sets of windows and crewcab her? The reasons are that the areas around the windows are pretty rusty so will need rrpairing but if i repair amd keep as bus i need to source double and simgle seats eventually.

If you need to do some work, and you don't have all the seats, go with the crewcab. Have you still got thew full headlining?

She has no headlining as someone removed 2 of the roll bars from the roof.she has leatherette type padded material that was fixed all around the eindows etc though.

I`d go with the crewcab option and kit the back out as a camper with the units removable in case you need to load up some stuff

Thats an idea troppo as i could use the units from the camper.

I think the window surrounds are the worst bits. Alex's wheel tub to floors were nearly as bad. You should loose the windows and go crew cab.

The feedback is quite positive so will prbably remove the floor from the camper and use that.not sure on the windows yet

How bad is the rest of the camper? Surely after you went to all the trouble of doing the corners it'd be easier to flog it on rather than cut it up? You could always find a nice MK7 or something to cut a floor out of - Doesn't oldskooler have a stack of scrappers?
