couldnt resist the title sorry
nitrovan has been in the wars and had arguments with concrete mixers/luton tail lifts/bollards etc and now its time to refurb the whole van....full re-spray, new chrome headlights/rear lights new rubbers/steps, new 2 seat config carpet and a bit of chrome trim/bling goin on.

will try to get the links right for the progress pics but im sure someone will kindly alter them if they are linked wrong!
