They both look close in the pictures. i think the blue on the T34 is a little lighter, hard to tell. Both look good :thumbs:


Matt and I made major progress this week. The rear section of the bus is in the final session of primer. I'll put the final high build on the front and the doors tomorrow, ran out of primer...again!! :lol: The outside will be just one wet sanding block session away from paint :dance: At this point we will go ahead and finish sanding the bottom of the bus and paint it next week. I can't wait to get this thing in color.
