Mk5 complete refurb

[trigger]

Looking great, and you're right it's a mk5, well worth saving as they are the last of the proper transits

great thread mate, keep it coming..

[CH1]

We got some more work done this weekend



Next thing to do is to underseal all under the van and put waxoil in the sills, chassis, inner wings (almost everywhere ) Also going to get the rims sent away to get shot blasted. I was wanting the van all finished and on the road for the first of August but I dont think that is going to happen now unless the weather stays good all week and we can get on with it.
More picture to follow

I've got an S reg in similar condition to yours. You've given me the inspiration to do it up properly LOL. Where did you get the new panels from?

[matthew2riches]

I wish mine was as good as this

[CH1]

got all my panels from my local motor factors through Hadrian Panels, just bought a brand new rear bumper today, will get pictures tomorrow.
Started to put it back together now



Got the wheel rims shot blasted and primered


Will paint them silver tomorrow
The vans new paint job


The van in these pictures doesnt look half as good as it really does, very very please with the finished paint job, will get better picutures when it is all put back together
I have waxoiled inside the wings, front inner wings, rear inner wheel archers, all in the sills and behind my new rear bumper. Hopefully this van should last a very long time. I will get more pictures tomorrow of the newly painted wheel rims and the new rear bumper.
