How did you finally manage it? plumbers soldering mat folded in half wedged between the body and chassis heat a big hammer punch and a small hole i had to make under the rear seat so i could actually get the punch to the bolt !

If you bought the bus you could convert it ala Italian job for your fleet? Loads of Hot Rod racers used to convert them to transport the cars and provide accommodation at the circuits
