Been doing some spray painting today.. this is one of a pair of new back doors to go onto my van

this is a skuttle painted to match the rest of the body

This is a bonnet got it for £15 but it was a nasty shade of yellow....not any more!

Image

side loading door in primer, note the home made units in the background, gonna do some dovetail drawers to go in em tommorow.

and here it is in white (coat 1 of 3) :D

This is a pair of doors i got off a dry stored minibus for £40 the pair and they only required minor surgery to get em ready for paint.

And seeing as my little girl still isn't in bed :( :( , she has insisted i put a picture of her on this thread, she is called Sophie (aged 3)She is upset that peppa pig has just finished. I'll post some pictures of the van all this is going on tommorow. I know you will all say "wiegh it in", but i say....OY! NOOOOOOO! HOOLA HOOPS ARE ROUND! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Does she call you "daddy Pig"??

I've got a 5ltr tin of waxoyl, and don't intend on having any left when this pesky van is finished. Big Col.
