When you get lemons, make lemonade! Those strips of wood give it an antique look, or perhaps a nautical look. However you view it, it just looks good Rudy

I thought it looked either nautical or gypsy-like myself

Very smart remedy, Rudy....and looks good, too. Yep, I'll say it again, you're a very talented craftsman

Thanks for the compliments on the ceiling strips. They are cool but are not so classy.

Here are some night shots of the running lights and the brake lights. ALL of the running lights are now working.

I like where the large brake lights have the word STOP printed inside the lenses. DUH! Is that what those red lights mean?

I can't help myself! Your obelisk of manhood stained glass is stellar!

I'm glad you brought this up Rudy because I have been thinking about ceiling covering as well. I'll post in my thread to not hijack yours.

I really want to do this. I can imagine that acoustic wise it lends to better sound. I'll be bringing along my stockpile of instruments(like my electric piano) as well.

Who's the man babe laying on the grass?

" The man babe" Thats just some guy that was in the way when Rudy pulled in

Do you mean this stained glass piece? Some people think it is a key chain. It is really "Goldenrod, The Tree Of Life"

The guy in the running lights photos is Danno who owns the shop that I am parked next to.

Here is a pic of us when we played in a free-form jazz band. Danno is in the front.

He's a cutie pie and yes, Goldenrod is what I was talking about.

Is Danno overcome by the beauty of your bus, or did you back over him?

There are times when I am working on a project that I get so tired I just do the same thing, collapse on the ground and stare at the project trying to get the right perspective on things

How does Danno like being a 'man babe'?

Here is a pictorial and explanation of the fuel pump challenge that reached fruition. There are quite a few photos.

This presentation is being made in hopes of providing some insight to what the CAT 1160 looks like and how the fuel lines work.

Let us begin.

First, pics of the failed fuel pump. Notice the wet dirtiness spewed about.

This is almost an artistic photograph.

More pics to come. I have to go tend to the doggies.

I'll be Bach, you be Beethoven.
