Postby davey wren » Mon Feb 23, 2009 11:08 pm

hi all. not been on here since i sold the orange and blue mk5 lwb semi to "shirlz" on here (hope its still going strong). bought an iveco daily 3510 after selling that (another bright wacky creation). anyway, bought this lovely 100psi mk6 today. very tidy though needs a good polish. starting work on it tomorrow afternoon so will update as i go on.

ended up working later than expected today so didn't get quite as much done as i thought i would. removed the 2 (yes 2) ply floors as it was damp and broken and a pretty crap fit. underneath was like a sand/gravel pit. gave it all a good clean, painted arches and rear panel, waxoiled evrywhere i could (3 litres), fitted new floor and a half size mdf bulk head. treated myself to a new toolbox and a new cheapie generator too.

hopefully get some more done tomorrow night.
