We got the lift out of Shaun's bus yesterday.



Not too bad a job. After pulling out a few of these lifts I find its easiest to just pull the pins out of the arms and grind the bolts off the base. Takes maybe 45 mins.
He got all the flooring out himself.
Next we'll finish up the floor demo and give it a drenching in Ospho. Probably today.

yeah, once i figure out how to place everything. not sure what i wanna do with it yet , just the old lady wont ride in it unless i clean it and make it pleasant to ride in lol. i really enjoy driving it because it reminds me of an old international dump truck we had growing up , that was the same size as the shorty.
