Hey, cheers guys ;) i'm not giving in, just giving up....

Hey Tim, this wasn't meant to come across as a dig mate ;) i'm glad you and your family have enjoyed the van. I did change the interior as it wasn't ever original anyway so tried to make it more usable, but i stand corrected - It is a personal thing :)

It's had a few knocks to the front over the years looking at the pic?

Not had time this week yet again...:( i'm contemplating putting the cover back on for another season? Not got much left to do but don't want my hard work ruined by a harsh winter. I have to face facts that the van won't be ready for action for another few months....:( you have to be real don't...
