Yippee! Vera's gone to Woolfy!!!!!

[woolfy]

unfortuatly for the dove shed its the end of the road ,as it needed far to much work carrying out on it to put back on the road,so it has been giving up parts for other vans to live on. im really going to enjoy restoring this van, and also the dog and paul fordys van. as they may well be the last off of the production line from here for a while, as im thinking of moving on to other avenues to see what its like restoring other makes of vehicles. so im going to try my hardest and make these three vans to best we can. just need to think for a while now which other makes or models of van need repair panels making etc. im thinking of maybe bedford ca or morris j2s etc for a new challenge.[?]

no its the first tape i could come across, tried to squeeze down a gap between the vans and caught my arm on a razor sharp bit of metal that i had cut through. big five inch gash, blood everywhere, and it bloody hurt. nevermind you lives and learns.[B)]

Thanks for the update Woolfy. Sorry about your arm.

I'm looking forward to Vera getting her mask of proper metal!

Thanks for everything you've done so far.

Woolfy has been busy with our van over the last few months so here are photographs of progress.

Lots of outrigger action as they weren't too hot!

Woolfy has managed to take the autohome body off after rebuilding the woodwork frame so that it didn't collapse.

There were a whole host of delights awaiting him under that floor!

Jacking points and spring hangers:

New ones!

Rear corner:

Shiny stuff!

More nice shiny stuff:

And some more:

More to come soon

A complete front spring hanger - now that's one we've not seen before. Excellent stuff[8D]

How refreshing

 

[woolfy]

yes we can also make complete new shiney spring hanger outriggers if required. the one in the picture was still being made as i took the picture half way through the process,but you get the idea.
