1961 Double Door Camper Conversion

[SlashKirk]

A few things just had to be fixed right away.

Like:
1. replace the decklid, valance, rear hatch, with better stuff I had lying around
2. weld shut the 38 holes in the roof, and cb antenna mount
3. fix that radio hole hack....right Sean

I would have been more impressed if you cut the replacement piece to size and welded each individual slat!

Actually, very nice job. Can't wait to see it in person. Let me know if you need a 6V radio!

This is gonna be awesome!! A panel is where its at!! I cant wait to see this when its done. I know you take your time and all the little details.

I know you take your time

Too much time and get side tracked kinda easy

I threw this engine stand together because I had the extra parts on hand. I also put wheels on the bus flipper over device.

Its easy to get side tracked. I got material left over from my rotisserie i made made for the 62. Looks like you used the same sq. stock for that engine stand? You have have inspired me to make one myself. The 61 came to a halt to work on that single cab for framingsilly PLUS im trying to get that vanagon i picked up on the road. 3 busses in a 24x60 with parts everywhere lol. Your shops bigger plus you got that lift. I envy you im tired of rolling around on the floor haha. I meant to ask in the last post, what kind of welder are you using? Amperage wise i mean? Ive been running flux on a 110 Lincoln and it blows!! I was gonna switch to .030 standard wire with 75/25 gas. I need a tank first tho.
