My 79 Bay window project. Not trying to build a show car, just something to enjoy cruising, camping, and meeting fellow air cooled vans in. I haven't a clue what I'm doing so it will be a work in progress.

I like your bus. I was checking it out at YUBuggin.   The sanded down orange/multi-color stripe looks cool just like that.

Thanks guys. The headlights are spyder 7" universal from carid.com. At the moment I can't say they are good for night driving. Maybe they will be once I play with adjustment. They were cheap trial headlamps..... Maybe one day can get the real deal.

Saw you at the Sugar Hill show...the interior looks great. Cool 
Consider 'cruising the coop' in a few weeks to put that camper to good use!
