He knows, he's been told lol started to take out the bulkhead. Unfortunately some numpty ply lined the side of the van to right up to it so can't get the bolts out.... So I had to start unscrewing many screws which are all different head sizes lol

We managed to fit the new aerial. What a game that is and muttley has dismantled the dash so I can clean/paint etc lol

I’m going for red and white theme for the whole van. My idea is to paint the scuttle and windscreen trim red. Therefore I’m doing red/white inside as well

Well, the bulkhead it out, glad muttley helped cos I don’t actually think I could’ve held it on my own lol

Started paint the dash trim, but then we ran out of paint, so didn’t get much done....

Needs another coat really, and have got to work out how to get a white pinstripe around it, might have to hand brush that one . I’ve discovered I’m crap at spray painting though lol

What makes you think your a bad painter, if there no runs then your halfway there and if you can see the paint going on you'll see the shiny middle and matt edges then you want to catch that part with your next spray so it's all wet. If you put enough coats you can polish it back

Well all I have to say is, the carpet isn't red so that's a start and the trim looks good to me, just build up the coats slowly and all is good :D

Never put yourself down, if others don't like it then tough :wink: N

I am my harshest critic it’s true... but thank you for the encouragement, when we get more paint I will try to finish it off.

The only reason there is no paint on the carpet is 3 layers of newspaper under the board I was using lol
