New transit owner mk6

Postby J88arv » Sun Mar 12, 2017 10:56 am

Hi all

Purchased a swb mk6 transit with 197k on the clock, scabby but I must say as my first transit I'm smitten.

I want to sort the rust on the body out and make it mint but it's for our business so my lass isn't having any of it.

I do fancy banded steels on it and maybe lowering slightly if any one can help.

Any advice welcome

Welcome along mate.

Check underneath and inner arches for rust, you need the van to look good for business :wink: That what I tell my Mrs :lol: N

hi all

sadly my first mk6 was alittle rusty so I let it go to a new home.
that said, purchased a lovely ex bt 2002 mk6 in excellent condition which I still want to lower and tart up a little

I have tried to search for guides on how too but with no joy, can anybody help?
