Keep It up Inty, I cant wait to see the new colour scheme, I just wish I could find the time to work on my transit as often as you.
On starting up, it sounded exactly like a skeleton having a w@^k in a biscuit tin.

Have you painted it again? How many coats of paint has that had? Guess you hand painted it looking at the window rubber. :roll:
