    This episode reminded me of when I owned RM664, the so-called Silver Lady. I loved driving the Routemaster through crowded city streets among slow-moving traffic. Exactly what it was designed for. Effortless. But driving up the motorway in the slow lane at a constant 38 mph was mind deadening after 10 minutes and positively dangerous after an hour. I was constantly worrying about lorries ploughing into the back of me, because they are used to slow traffic moving at a minimum of 50mph and were probably texting. Well done Pete!

    It would be so cool and very useful to have a secret boot/storage compartment under the stairs where you removed that dented rear panel at 11:58 You could use it to store all your tools and spare bits for the bus and access it via a couple of budget locks and a T key ! - Great video Pete - All the very best of luck with your bus and your Vespa bike ! 👍👍👍

      @@PeteAndHisBus Yes, I completely forgot about the storage under those rear seats upstairs ! not to mention that small cupboard door that's also under the stairs where the bus conductor would keep all the bags money (change) and his spare ticket rolls ! locking everything away with a very secure type of budget lock (not the usual 8mm square budget key but a more secure key that was on the conductor's 3-way budget lock T key) - Being born in Hackney, East London in Jan 1977, I remember these routemaster buses very well from the early to mid 1980's when I was little on my mum's shopping trips and what the bus conductor used to do including his silver ticket machine where he would wind the handle for it to print my mum her bus ticket on the 149 bus back in 1983 when I was only 6 ! lol

    Very nice video. Good to get the business at the various events. Didn't know there was an event for tattoos, not my favourite subject though. Although I love RMs in their original condition, thought it was an excellent idea for rear adverts, looked quite good too. I was hoping you'd choose cream for the relief band. Nice paint brush job, as they were originally done. Good luck with future business.

    Relief band looks excellent, even in primary coat, and very clever on utilising the back of the Bus for some sneaky advertising - I'm sure your 'hit-rate' will benefit significantly as a result, and good for you !

    40 minutes don’t know how I lasted this long , I usually only watch short videos
    Cream stripe just right and you can use the lacquer thinners to clean up and thin the paint to make it flow on a bit better

    Hiya Pete I hope you get this comment. I am a professional Decorator and I have a tip for you with the stickers! How do I know? Well I've been doing it for years. Mix up some wallpaper paste and paste the back sticky side! And smooth out into position with a passengers brush,it evaporates and the tacky side of the sticker comes into play. If you don't believe me try it on something else you can slide it push it and once in position it's job done and it's so fast. I came to this because dado borders were self adhesive and when sticking to wallpapers or paint was a nightmare. It's so easy pete all the best to you. Ps! Don't tell everybody.

    Hi like watching your videos, did you by chance do the Royal Windsor Horse show as thought I was your bus on tv. Also as a child my grandad was the engineer for a bus company, using vehicles similar to the Routmasters, say back in the 70s and the bodywork was hand painted from top to bottom, his father sign wrote the company details on each vehicle but transfers became the way to go..... With 2 costs of hand applied varnish.

      Hi Terry, we have done the Windsor Show in the past but not this year. Wow, sounds like you have the whole team in your family to do a restoration, how very handy! Thanks for watching.

    I noticed you were using both hands to paint the relief stripe. I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous! It looks great by the way.

    I hope that you wound the fitted blinds round so that they displayed the all white or dayglo yellow blank display through which the vinyls could be backlight by destination box lights.
    the story about the dislodged battery is worrying on safety grounds so get your batteries properly secured. MOT failure and instant PG9 if VOSA carried out a roadside inspection.
    after all, you don't want VOSA to slap an immediate prohibition on the bus as you are enroute to a client's event.

    Wonder if using those out door led displays might work. Like the ones advertising boards sometimes use. Could be programmed to display anything you want. Not sure when on the move you’d be allowed though - unless it’s static.

    Hi Pete, the bus is looking grea, you have done a great job with the bus, I think you should leave the rivets as they are, as for the Vespa, my mum had one many years ago, and I thought it wzs a pig to ride, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia.

    £1.97 for diesel??? That's insane. We're paying $2.05 Australia a litre, or £1.20. That's bad enough. We're used to paying the equivalent of about £0.77p/ litre for petrol and diesel. Very entertaining video Pete!
