Next job was bus maintenance and windows cleaning! The bus got a bath and a bit of sunburn cream (Ankor wax) on the roof. Eleven year old was employed to polish the windows - all 27 of them. Yes you do the maths!
When we last took the door card off we forgot to put the dress ring under the handle and due to it being a pig off a job we had left it off. The tired and tested “toe method” was once again employed. This is because you have to push the card, spring and dress ring on to allow room to hammer the small door pin into the handle.
Then up on the hoist for a bit of engine maintenance, belly check and all round grease.

No we are not restoring it, we are preserving it and driving it!
