Ed and I paid a visit to Woods in Aylesham to check on progress with the bus. Super Ed was feeling strong and found that he could support the weight of the bus with just one hand!
We were delighted to find the old rusty beam cut out and the new one waiting to be fitted. Here they are side by side.
A close up of one of the brackets reveals the extent of the rot.
The weight of the body is temporarily supported by jacks whilst the new beam is prepared for fitment. Once in place attention will turn to the rear wheel arches before the chassis is cleaned and painted. The next blog should reveal a very different looking underside.
