Postby jolly olly » Sun Aug 31, 2008 11:45 pm

I seen a metalic silver short wheel base low roof transit on the road, it looked like it has been fitted with an after market pop up roof,with what looks like it has 2 short pipes sticking out the sides, just woundering if any one has any idea of who does these conversions cheers

I think it was, but i was it heavy traffic with a high barrier in between so just got a glimpse and noticed the roof shape (the front was more squared off instead of sloped) and the pipes sticking out the sides and it had sign writing on but not sure what it was

Well you could put it like that but it is a mobile paint shop with heater and extraction system.
