Re: 1960 SO-23 A.K.A. Gunther

I am planning on using a brushable lacquer for the clear coat. I will probably do 1 coat sanding sealer, 3 coats of the lacquer and finish it with a paste wax. I think I will just use Minwax products for it all, keep it simple.

Re: 1960 SO-23 A.K.A. Gunther

I continue to work on the cabinets. I made pretty good progress on stripping the clear coat. I only have the wardrobe and wash basin cabinet left to strip, then it is on to repairing damages. The edge banding is damaged or missing in quite a few spots so that will be a step added to the process. Her...

Re: Findlay Oktoberfest?

Adam,

A general idea of the date would be a good start... Would camping be available, restrooms?

Keep the info coming

Re: 1960 SO-23 A.K.A. Gunther

It has been a while since I have given an update on Gunther. The engine work and 12 V upgrade process continues... When the weather gets warmer I will focus my attention on that. In the meantime, I have been focusing on the interior of the bus. Bill is working on my rear seat upholstery and I have m...

Re: Tour of Local German Fare 2015

OK. So the last stop at Sterle's went well. I forgot to take a picture, but we had a few new comers to the local fare event. Maggie, Dan and Tiff came a long to join in on the fun. It was great to have them. Hopefully they will continue on the tour. So, next month is TRL's birthday so we decided to ...

Re: Tour of Local German Fare 2015

Just bumping this up as a reminder... Sterle's Country House East 55th - Cleveland Feb. 27th 6:30 PM (Next Friday!) Looks like they will have live music for the evening. I also looked at the menu and they do offer a fish fry. Please post in this thread or let me know through PM if you plan on coming...
