Stripdown going well

[Dodge camperman]

Strip down going well nearly everything out from inside and doors stripped, left door catches on to keep the doors shut. Took the roof off and am in the process of taking off the canvas., are there any other Bucaneer models around I haven't seen any pictures of similar vans. I have one really good door card but the other is shot so I can use the good one for a template


The wood on the floor has turned to mussy sawdust so it will all come out just leaving it there to protect the floor luckly the floor is perfect

you've got Lucky there ☺ can't wait to see what you do with it

It's all a rather steep learning curve easy when you know how. The first door took me two hours to take apart the second only 15 mins.

Great work
It's looking very promising. Is all the floor covering out? If so you are extremely lucky not to have a couple of the areas above the box sections bubbling through at least.

Yes maybe I should check tomorrow. Will take the windows out next week. There is a lot of boxing parts and sticky labels

I usually use a bucket, always wonder why I always have a few bits left over, and lose a few others

looking good. The door panel looks the same as I have in mine. Its Dodge "High Line" trim

yes always a leaving curve...i still plenty to go. Welding's my next thing... Got a soapbox racer to make shortly ☺

 

[Panky]

Am I mistaken or are they H120 stripes

 

[jimberlake]

I think they are. Maybe surprise under the hood
