Really really pleased, but fordboynick has really worked hard over the last few weeks, doing all my panels, painting, doing all his other jobs at the same time and not forgetting hosting makeover 3. We worked late a lot of nights and Nick starts work between 6 to 7 am :shock:
Big thanks for thecomplimentss guys, so many cool vans today, well done to you too Pat :wink: What brilliant turnout 8) 8) 8) 8)

Found a few more pictures on my camera the morning, just before we left for Transitmania 2011.

Finally outside after most of the van is put back together and a load of cleaning to be done, we then did a little work on Nicks van, but while my back was turned he just had to have his little joke...
