[Luke]

wow - there has been a few sets going on ebay recently - not cheep!! have a look through the ebay section to see what they fetched!! its a shame you only have 3 if you manage to get them all they would look great on your mk2!!!

[mk2panelvan]

got to be worth more than £40, but as I don't want to resell them it really won't matter,Just thought they would be rare, I think they will look great on the Mk2.
What sort of van would they have come on????

[mk2panelvan]

Cheers, yep had a look back, some sold for £175 and the others was £100 reserve not met for five.
Hope he can find the four, but i still have the three, one might come up as a single you never know
Going to start in on my MK2 real soon and get some more jobs done.

Been a while folks, I had a house roof to build, anyway I have been doing a bit of prep work for the welding.
Panel building!
Front Panel off

Very rusty corner

New inner panels made and temp fitted

Front temp fitted on

Just have to make one up for the other side and then its time for the welder!

I was wondering how you were getting on, she's getting there!

[bigmastif]

vans starting to take shape m8 lookin forward to seeing it painted

[mk2panelvan]

Whats she worth???? sadly a change of surcumstance means my projects have to go, this will be my MK2 Transit, rotten 1977 V8 SD1 and a 1966 105E anglia
What would I get for the MK2, as you see from the pic's it has good panels, the side damage and the bit of rot lets it down but the rest is really good and she runs and drives lovely

[madmark]

just put them on ebay and see what they fetch!

[FredTransit]

that's a pity, you should try to finish her as at the moment she might only go for scrap.

[mk2panelvan]

Just trying to get her started, its a twin choke and the left hand side is flooding
I'll just let the booster charge a bit and have another go

[mk2panelvan]

ITS ALIVE!!!




After sorting out the carb she was off and drove back and forth very well, brakes not even stuck on


Here she is parked in her new place ready for welding, will have to wait a couple of weeks but shes out and waiting

[mk2panelvan]

Well having the children off school has held me back, my Capri still waits for its clutch and gear box

Anyway, got the front wing off, still blue paint under there, was shocked.

[mk2panelvan]

Made use of the my 12 year old son, he put 3 coats of red lead on, painted eveywhere, Can't wait to get my welder in a couple of weeks time, then its on with cutting out and new metal in

Just need to remove the wheel now to get at the rest, hope my Capri wheel brase will fit

[FredTransit]

Now you are getting somewhere!
