Post BACAMICKS hino build
this a bit of a log on our build , its a 1991 hino with a rearmount turbo,6sp full syncrow box, im the second owner of her and it done 550k, head hight is only 1925mm and im right on that hight :( we looked at quite a few busses but grabed this one as the service history was brilliant , i figger im not gunna be walking around to much in her

the bus

the strip


some of the wireing , ive used the CMS diy setup so i can do it all myself beside the final conection

the rear window is a bit of a feather for us , it is a 4 cubard setup that we used some 3d pics my missus bouht me back in 2006 , turned them into the doors


bed is a lift up on rams

overheads are all pull down doors , they are the setup where ya push them in to open so no nobs anywhere

Love to see it. It brings back memories of when I built my houseboat. I used the same 78mm, 75mm and 72mm wall section steel. I called it adult lego, fantastic to work with.
I even loved the smell of burning galvo until it made me sick. Drink milk before doing it they told me AFTERWARDS!!
