That's some good news Martin! Indeed try to keep much of the advertising as original as possible, would be a shame to over restore it.
 
Make sure you do a good job on the engine and gearbox as it was heavy enough pushing it into the NEC with all of that metal missing!![8D]

Will look amazing when finished though!

Ruperts revenge is underway!

I knew it was rough, but not quite this bad [V] A huge steel plate had been tacked over the rotten floor.

For a man with your skills Martin, this should be a piece of cake? At least it's easier to repair a coach built wooden body than to find new sides for a van, isn't it?

I am not a person, I am a number, 395 actually......Be seeing you!
If I told you I was a pathological liar, would you believe me?
 
Wow that's a bit well gone! Maybe time for complete repro floor panels?
No better man for the job than Mr M. Following this resto with great interest. I think it may be even bigger save than the detector van.
Keep the pix and progress reports coming please :)



I just need a good rootes...
 
Wishing I hadn't touched it now, I think the 2 year resto period is now looking a bit optomistic [V]

On the bright side if you hadn't have started now pretty soon there wouldn't have been anything to start with:)
