The project base vehicle

:lol: remember what you see is what you get and this is the worst of it - no hidden filler under bodged on panels - 2 wings and 4 arches most of that will be gone

plus a few months back that had an MOT

don't tell porkies!!
seriously? and it passed?

At the end of the day, it looks solid underneath. Bodywork is where the magic needs to happen It's all for the fun of it.

chassis looks good, theres no big dents or rips in the body. once the rust is sorted and it's had a good clean it'll look nearly new again. won't take long to sort out so should be plenty of time for the mods.

With what`s on mine I think we can make a good job out of it all.Worst bits on mine are rear doors.Fronts and side are straight,bonnet is pretty good too.front end is all complete.

Anyone with a nice recovery truck(like in those photos hey Luke)?Perhaps we might find the best one in Sussex!!??to move it.
`Er indoors would like to see it go sooner than later.So if we have any idea as to where the Build Off might be please post soon as the van might not be here next summer.

Can you get the body sandblasted once the mechanicals are off, that saves hours of grinding

again, find a mobile 'blaster looking for some free advertising, and involve the local press, the vans being sold for charity int it?

Interesting, I'm new to this forum, but not new to restoring having done the best part of 12 cars in the last 2 years (on top of the day job - which takes up about 70 hours a week), and my current beastie is about to be featured in Total Vauxhall so I'm not too shabby . .
This is it . . in this months Total Vauxhall


So I'll throw my hat in the ring, but it depends where this is going to happen . . (I might have missed that . . doh!)
