Lovely van. Why has it got a Mk2 rear valance then? Is there a good reason? I can see why he fitted the arches.

We asked him about the interior but he said he wasn't sure what was going in - he was gonna leave it for his mum to do :D
Whatever they choose though, I bet it'll be good 8)


Its a good job I dont let my mum near my van :!: It would look like the inside of a horse box :? In fact if it were up te her it would BE a horse box :shock: :lol: :lol:

Good to meet you at the weekend by the way :D

I can only assume he's used the rear from a Mk2 cos its curves under the back more, so he can more easily get away without a rear bumper, thats just my opinion of course cos I didnt ask him :oops:

hi to you all
thank you for your positive comments on jays van
he needed the boost from you guys to confirm in his mind that the van is going in the right direction. hi fred been a while since we met. the rear panel was needed as we flat paneld the rear door and had to place the no plate in keeping with the van and the mk 2 valence was fairly easy to graft in. thank you all again. :shock: all comments welcome good or bad. any help needed ? just ask
