HAha Woolfy, you've got that right. Sad thing is that he's got more of an idea on how to fix it than me [;0] quote 'daddy, has katy got to go in the big crusher machine?' Lol, whos he been talking to???
 
That'll polish out no problem. This way you'll end up with a solid van and nothing to worry you in the future.

Peggy drinks too much!
If I told you I was a pathological liar, would you believe me?
 
Hi Scott, fingers crossed we'll have made a start by the end of the month, so as of yet shes just stripped down ready or action. :). You doing ok with pia?
 
Brilliant Scotty boy:) are you doing all the work yourself like I or do you have help? PIA is still in surgery but is getting stronger every day;-) at least Katy's wheel arches are looking ok..;-)

Pia is responding well to her Botox Treatment!
 
I've got a good friend who's going to do the major body work outriggers, floor, side fluting e.t.c. and mechanicals, he's got all the tools to make the panels aswell (sorry woolfy) I'm going to help as much as possible (work and life permitting). I'm going to be doing the exterior prep and maybe painting also the interior. A new motor is looking very likly aswell :)
 
Started Katy last week so heres a few few pics to show you all, The pop top roof you see on her will be up for sale when it is removed later this week, so if anyones interested just message me. Cheers, scott.

Summer's Coming.....
Trust me
 
We've decided to give the motor the benefit of the doubt and are hoping with a good service and lots of shiny new bits from Mr Maltas it'll look after us for a fair few miles. Been on the phone to martin this eve and ordered new brake cyllinders, clutch cyllinders etc etc, window rubbers (the Mrs credit card just melted!) It's getting exciting folks:)
 
Just a few picture updates to show you all. Front panel sorted with fewer flutes you'll notice, new door skin and total rebuild of bottom half of door. :D
