You have done a great job young Dottie!! and George is just a genius with the work he has done to get this bus ship shape and ready to go. Our little bus is sitting in our yard, with a lovely new engine, but we have a lot to do to upgrade her and make her comfortable, and that of course = $$$$$$
Our original concertina bus door has gradually got harder and harder to open, has gone quite stiff, we have sprayed the piano hinge with WD40 and that sort of loosened it up for a bit, but we cant get her to shut properly and lock shut with the lever. I think the linkages may need a bit of adjustment, there is quite a bit of movement in them when you try to shut the door, so that may be some of the problem

Now that we have seen your set out, we are thinking about whether to strip ours out completely and redesign the set up to make it a bit more practical. No idea when that will happen, it is quite hard when you both work, but hopefully not too far down the track.

It will be a bit sad when you take off Dottie and George, because then we wont be able to pop in to have a cuppa, but we will certainly be so glad to see you make your big journey, because it is certainly well deserved.

At least you have your laptop and email, so we will be able to keep in touch. And as for keeping in touch, we will probably pop up next Sunday with your shiny black burka :shock:

G'Day Dot & George,
May I suggest that you get a windscreen stone guard fitted, or a good insurance policy. Your unit is a lot bigger that the sheep pen. I guess that Norman has returned to the Long White Cloud.
Keith.

how many do you want? We are currently at Cue but there are many areas where they are still getting gold over here.

Who are happy campers tonight??? yep we is.. This is a parts manual that Mitsubishi Fuso (Aust) has told us that they are unable to obtain :o :o Sure confirms what we have been told that there is someone high up in the organisation that does not want this manual available to just anyone here in Aust... I think it is called "Cornering the market" :roll: Pays to keep on pushing and pushing here and there doesn't it?? It is even in English :D :D
