Finally got the Punto sorted:I
And so to Harvey. This is what was left of the bulkhead frame after numerous attempts to remove parts of it for local repairs - wish I'd spent the time figuring out how it was held in and took it out in one piece[V]
And a new one constructed and fitted in place
and covered with ply
I'm experimenting with wood stains to try and get a decent match - anyone point me in the right direction.
The bench boxes in place for a trial fit
They look a bit grotty but I'm bound to do more damage fitting the furniture so I'll spruce things up once it's all fitted.
Thanks Baz.
I was using what was left of the old vinyl faced chipboard flooring to crawl under the Punto - and it got a bit wet:I It soaked up the water like a sponge and I can imagine it being a big contributing factor to the floor rot we see so often when the covering is removed[xx(] A soggy corrosive poultice.
I've got them already
There aren't any cupboards just the bench seat across the front. There are hinged flaps covering the area over the battery trays and behind the engine lid - trouble is I haven't got the extra little cushions to give you those extra inches - not that I need them:I- me being all slim and all
In the grand scheme of things it won't be long now
Ironic isn't it - we spend all our time fixing our vans and try to eradicate every trace of rust - then we spend as much time as possible parked up in damp fields boiling god knows how many kettles, the poor things are assaulted from all directions with damp[:0]
Looking great Panky Maybe just go for the minamilist look, then it's just a couple of cushions and you are away (providing you can find the ignition key)
