My MK 6

[Paul 1]

My new Mk6, picked up last saturday:

so farr, cleaned out the inside T cuted the outside and booked the side scratch in at the body shop. When the sprayings been done will buff it and polish it. Started working on the load bay

Ripped out the old ply, vacumed then 2 coats of red oxide, no rust and want to keep it like that.





Ply lined it, yacht varnished the ply then protekta coted the floor





Raking out the inside this weekend, will post pics tomorow.

Looks like a 2000 to 2002 reg. You'll have the tinted glass too, heated screen and electric windows were standard on exec. mirrors were an option Has it got abs?

I gave up searching for one with all the options fitted, very few had aircon.

whats the green stuff?

[Paul 1]

Its a 04 plate transit 260 85ps FWD, does have ABS. Was a lucky find as id been looking at vans in a 100 mile radius to find a nice speced one.

Its a shame I couldnt find a 100ps van but this one is still a lot quicker than my old 90ps mw being lighter and will be more than quick enough once ive got the ecu ree mapped.

The green stuff is protektakote, waterproof non slip rubber paint, works brilliantly as mud can be swept out and I can even hose it.

the green stuff looks like the thing we have in the Landy called "Rhino-lining" by a company called Rhino.

is it a sort of hard rubbery/plastic like material? a bitty bumpy?

Going from the link I have seen that stuff before called Bedliner in the states, supposed to be very good. Plus you must have already bought a tin for another job as it can be bought in blue.

[Paul 1]

It was a left over tin from doing a couple of fire door ramps for a customer, otherise would of bought the blue!
