Right lads we need a bit of an update on all this.AndyG is attempting to tidy all the threads relevant or not with regard to the Makeover,which can only be a good thing so that we have an historic beginning and hopefully an end to the project.

No doubt at North Weald apart from enjoying yourselves,drinking,eating and racing, the topic of all conversation was "how`s the build coming on"? :lol: :lol:
Instead of asking everyone by PM what`s going on I thought I would ask openly on here.

So first of all where`s the van..........................?in Reading still courtesy of Pete at Grosvenor.
Does it now have an MOT.....................?Not sure as Pete was going to sort this.What do we owe you Pete,if we have one.
Where is it going next....................?Billyboy was going to have it.Fordboynick has offered to respray again to match and also trim it,but I really think we should all get involved and need to arrange when.
The AlanN front bumper has been found :) and hopefully has been passed on by Nick or Alan at NW to unite with the van..................anyone know about this?
Dirtydog has blue led`d all the switches and I have them in my care.I`m sure they will look really 8)
From memory we need two nice matching glass panels for the rear doors.

And finally....................will it be at Transitmania????????????????????????????????

Speak very soon hopefully

We just need to get the final bits sorted.Alan N`s front bumper on,sort the roof out,get it all resprayed the same colour,get THAT Mot on her and then put some sort of a nice "dayvan"interior in.
You up for running the "mess tent"then Nada when we get the Makeover up to Billyboys?
