Not really when Rover made the deal to buy that van, it was talked about (on here) by the seller and others.
I gave my old bumper to Cameron (100ps) to do the same thing though I don't know if he has made any progress with it.

hi
im still undicided on the screenvisor. im hoping to have the welding finished next weekend as long as the weather holds out .then ill be putting the bumper and bonnet on so that should change the whole look again

hi all
at last im starting to get some where with all the rot chopped out and slowly starting to put it back together . a couple of pics of the progress
passenger side chassis now removed and drivers side replaced with the donor one. which had to be patched up in places but it was nothing compared to the original one

my god talk about a rebuild! :shock:

Those pics just made coffee come through my nose :lol:

Thats one whopping hole :wink:

by **dangeeeeerousss** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 2:46 pm

i didnt think it would be as bad as what it was .untill i got stuck in then it went from bad to worse.but at least its starting to get some where and should last a few years when its done.
hopping to have all the welding finished by the weekend weather permitting
