Well that's the top deck seats in! (pictures)

It has taken about 3 months of weekends to do the Top Deck floor, ceiling, panelwork, stairwell and the seats.

I'm pleased with the results, even though it has been hard work!

Hopefully we can do the moquette some day but it will do for now

That was a lot of brackets, bolts and screws went into this lot!

The scaffold tower from BPS Access Solutions, will be very useful in the repaint!

Hope you have enjoyed these, work continues on the restoration.

Hi Tim

If you have the corners for the light units too that would be handy as mine have been robbed.

Thanks

Thanks Jim

Tim is letting me have his old ones, I think the Ebay ones might be off Peter malin's bus as I bought the refurbishment rear lights and indicators from him
