This time on Pete And His Bus I drive a gorgeous mini van, I fit a very over priced air box onto my Honda Monkey, I actually fit the interior lights in my bus RML 2730 and I go to a really cool event called Rustival.
The air box I have fitted to my Monkey is a DNA Stage 3 twin air filter with rubber tops.
The channels responsible for creating Rustival are Hubnut, Furiousdriving and Idriveaclassic. A big thanks goes out to them for having me and creating a great day out. www.rustival.co.uk
If you'd like to come and see me at the EG vintage bus running day, here are the details:

A massive thanks also goes out to Matt (Sir Sparks A Lot) for all his help.

About Pete And His Bus: Pete is a normal (ish) guy who has a big passion for old vehicles and particularly old buses. He is NOT a trained mechanic nor is he a professional restorer. He enjoys converting vehicles but he can not promise that what he is doing is going to work on your vehicle. Nor can he promise that you won’t harm yourself if you were you to attempt the things he does. He recommends that you are safe and responsible with machinery and equipment even if you’ve seen him messing about with it. A workshop and it’s content can be a dangerous place. If you are in doubt about your own vehicle, contact a professional for advice.

I used to ride to school on SMK7xxF RMLs when they were new including RML2730 once it moved to UX in 1970. My memory is that the ‘blind box’ in the lower saloon was an illuminated advertisement panel with 2 or 3 fluorescent tubes behind so you could legitimately have put some lights in there behind a translucent screen or message panel and added to the effect.

You’ll have ridden on her no doubt!! Yep the old electric unit was still in there. In practice the downstairs will be working space so there’s no real need for that light up destination box. 👍👍

The enthusiasam and symapthetic attention to all these vehicles is infectious and very watchable. The Midget looked amazing at Rustival, top job! Looking forward to the next update on RML 2730...

Another video which is a surprising treat for a friday night. So OCD time, even though you will be able to bend/glue/paint the aluminium disks to the curved ceiling the led light bezel itself won't bend and will always show a gap. So you could use some sealant to cover that bit up, create some foam gaskets for them or even, with the right measurements, 3d print some shims. 3d printers are magic for things like this.

That perfect white Citroen GS Estate might not mean anything to you but looked like a perfect clone of the best car I ever owned. I hated that it died of tin worm and had no idea any had survived ukland’s horrendous weather. I almost cried. A 2CV and several BXs later I decided Cit had forgotten about engineering and become content to be French in all the wrong ways so my love affair with the marque died. Thanks for the memories.

Funnily enough the reason I loved it so much is because it actually meant a lot to me too. My dad had the exact car when I was a tiny boy and I remember many holidays in the south of France in it. Ours was orange with brown interior. 😂👍

Another great episode… love what you are doing to the lighting! Regarding Gaydon .. I’ve been there in a Routemaster and back .. omittedly only from Amersham & back last Summer to the bus festival in RML2440. Thanks for the mention in your interview at the Rustival event .. yes indeed RML2355 should be “Green” lol! I will try and get to the East Grinsted Running Day Pete … talking of which, as you had your bus at Windsor recently… how about coming to the Amersham & District Motorbus Society’s Windsor Running Day on Sunday 28th July .. to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of the closure of WR garage? Even if you don’t bring your own bus down .. I am sure you will get the chance to drive one of the Green RML’s that will be in service that day.. but of course RML2355 spent from June 1967 until December 1968 based at Windsor Garage .. so she would fit in right at home!

My dad had a lovely Mini pickup. Why not use the old illuminated ad panel downstairs fora bar menu ? Must say I hated when LT replaced the old interior lights when they modernised the Routemasters. RM 2033 and 2078 escaped this and retained the old interior lights but with new moquete . Much nicer in my opinion.

Hi Pete. I've been watching your vids for several years now, and I absolutely love them. So please don't take me for just a critical twat 'cos I have really tried not to be. But here's the thing... Your habit of giving the engine a bootful of revs just before switching off is driving me NUTS! The last thing you are doing before switching off is dumping a good squirt of fuel air mix into the cylinders currently on the inlet stroke, which is not burnt off because you immediately kill the ignition. The piston is by now on the compression stroke and so all valves are closed and so the fuel has nowhere to go but down. So when the engine cools, the fuel condenses out of the air and trickles down the bores. That washes the oil off the piston rings, removing precious lubrication, increasing bore score, wearing out the hone, lessening compression and in general doing a Compo to your lovely classics. And it dilutes the oil in the sump with fuel. In the Mini it's even worse because the gearbox shares the same oil. Please forgive me for being such a snark. Cheers, Mark.
